WSC starts informational site
The World Shipping Council said Wednesday it has launched a Web site aimed at providing the public with a better understanding of the shipping industry.
'Ocean carriers appreciate the importance of increasing awareness among the general public about the liner shipping industry, its importance to people's everyday lives, and the issues involved in improving maritime environmental quality and supply chain security,' said Ron Widdows, WSC chairman and group president and chief executive officer of NOL.
The start of the new site coincides with a survey by trade consultant IHS Global Insight, commissioned by the WSC, that explains the influence the liner industry has on the global economy.
