An introduction to Industry study - containerization
Hi, everyone! Welcome to the Business History Channel!
I am Kiron Kasbekar, and today I am going to talk about the history of containerization, the system that revolutionized the way in which things are transported around the world across oceans and by rail and road.
Two men who made the containerization revolution
How they traded in the past
Think of the world a few thousand years ago when people of different regions began trading with one another.
They didn't have the technologies we have today. But can you imagine their being able to trade without using some form or other of repository, amphorae, bags, barrels, bundles, drums, sacks, tubs, or other small and big form of storage of varying sizes to transport goods over long distances?
Without such means, transporting goods across countries and from one country to another would have been next to impossible.
So the means I described a little earlier were the means by which goods would be transported across long distances over land and sea. Then, a little over 65 years ago, a new form of storage came into being, called containerization, along with what is known as multi-modal transport.
And this form has steadily pushed out the other means in global trading. Today an estimated 90% of the world's goods are transported by sea – and about 60% of them are transported in containers. The long list of things transported in containers includes fresh and canned foodstuffs, electronic goods, domestic appliances, smartphones … virtually everything that is moved across oceans.
