Competitive Landscape for International Shipholding Corporation
Demand is driven by macroeconomic trends in global imports and exports. The profitability of individual companies depends on efficient operations and a good safety record. Large companies have advantages in fleet size and port access. Small companies can compete effectively by chartering services out of smaller ports and transporting unusual cargo. Average annual revenue per worker for a typical company is nearly $500,000. The global shipping industry transports over 90 percent of the world's total commerce, according to the International Shipping Federation (ISF). Deep sea shipping is a highly competitive industry; however, competition from other forms of transportation is limited.
