Reverse flow of goods, services and related
information because of recycling, reusing and
disposal activities.
Returns may take place because of a problem with
the performance of the item or simply because of
the customer changed his or her mind.
Return goods handling is complex and costly.
The cost of moving a product backward nearly as
much as nine times as high as moving the same
product forward.

30. Maritime industry and world trade
• Shipping is a “derived demand” of world
trade
• Demand for shipping is derived from the
demand of goods between countries
• Size of world trade decides the demand for
shipping
• World Trade Organization (WTO) provides a
platform to decide future strategies related
to trade

31. "Shipping: Indispensable to the world"
• A single ship can carry enough grain to feed nearly four million people
for a month;
• Another, enough oil to heat an entire city for a year,
• And others can carry the same amount of finished goods as nearly
20,000 heavy trucks on the road.
