TradeWinds Wavelength - a weekly shipping news show14 Aug

Maersk and Hapag-Lloyd bosses disagree on structural change

In this episode:

Maersk and Hapag Lloyd published bumper second quarter results over the last week.

But the news focused on whether liner trades are facing a structural shift due to non-shipping related constraints and the additional cargo types in boxes.

As shipping hears more and more about artifical intelligence, one digital outfit has launched an overarching agentic Ai tool over its digital modules.

Maersk and Cargill-owned Zero North got a new boss four months ago and Soren Andersen is seeking to expand its business and that means giving customers more reasons to go digital.

Brunei Darussalam held a maritime event recently and invited TradeWInds to attend.

It is not your normal shipping hub attracting shipping's attention but claims it has some key offerings for shipping to take note.

TradeWinds Huaqing Ma was there and filed this report.

Host and producer: Craig Eason

Additional reporting: Ian Lewis and Huaqing Ma
