Sea freight transport for centuries is considered the best way of international cargo transportation, which is used by most countries, and for many it is by no means the only one. Nevertheless, even despite its efficiency, modern transportation with the help of sea-going ships is not so ideal, and to the point that it seems that new technologies simply bypass it.
But in some 2-3 years the situation will change radically, thanks to the introduction of blocking technology, smart contracts and crypto-currencies - the founders and developers of the project Prime Shipping Foundation are doing it . In the next three articles we will find out which shortcomings of traditional sea cargo transportation they will be able to eliminate and how soon companies will be able to conduct international business in a new, modern, high-tech environment.
The best transport for cargo transportation
It would seem that how such a slow mode of transport can be so popular. But the facts say the opposite: 62% of all international freight shipments are carried out with the help of sea vessels, 90% of all ships in the world (more than 50 thousand units altogether) are used for transportation purposes, and 98% of all trade in Japan and the UK, and 90% % of US trade is carried out across the sea.
At the same time, if in 2015 the ships delivered about 54.69 billion tons of cargo with a total profit for the industry of $ 8.1 trillion, then in 2023-2024 the market is expected to grow to 92.10 billion tons of cargo and $ 15.5 trillion of profit per year. But why?
First of all, this is due to the highest load-carrying capacity, in comparison with the other modes of cargo transportation, and, at the same time, the lowest cost. Naturally, when it comes to large shipments of goods by containers, and not about the delivery of a Bluetooth-column with AliExpress. Therefore, at least delivery by car or air transport is much faster, but the price will be calculated not for quantity, not for volume, but for weight.
Sea freight is the most convenient option for medium and large business. The fact is that in them there are practically no restrictions on the dimensions of the cargo, especially when compared with vehicles. At the same time, shipping standards are subject to the same worldwide standards and regulatory requirements, so most countries use them as the main ones.
As we have already said, despite all the advantages, water transport has its drawbacks, which, to a large extent, are connected with the lack of high-tech solutions. As a result, the lack of transparency in supply chains, the presence of intermediaries, problems and difficulties with cross-border transfers of funds, as well as the loss of profit in the process of currency conversion.
Prime Shipping Foundation Solution
The founders of the project Prime Shipping Foundation took into account all the current difficulties associated with sea freight, in order to continue to provide their leading positions in the transportation market. Their goal is to ensure the transparency of supply chains and the ability to track the delivery process, instant cross-border payments and cheap conversion, as well as the security of B2B cooperation.
All these goals are achieved by creating a comprehensive solution, based on the technology of blocking, smart contracts and crypto-currencies. The Prime Shipping Foundation solution includes:
- Prime Payment System is a system for processing instant payments between B2B participants. Transactions have no geographical or legal restrictions and are implemented using platform tokens - PRIME Token;
- Prime Crypto Bank is a unified crypto-currency bank for enterprises that will allow users to operate transactions with PRIME tokens, as well as by currency currencies - dollars and euros;
- Prime Exchange is a crypto currency exchange that allows you to sell and purchase PRIME tokens for Bitcoin, Ether, dollars and euros;
- Prime Shipping Platform is a platform for the organization of delivery and its provision with a smart contract indicating the number of tokens for, the point of departure and destination, the type of vessel, the volume (weight) of the cargo and the date of delivery
- Prime Investment Fund - hedge fund of investors Prime Shipping Foundation
In the next article, let's talk about how exactly the creators of the Prime Shipping Foundation have come together to solve the current problems of sea freight and what role in this solution will play the technology of blocking.
