Managing a port isn’t easy, and time is of the essence. Shipments that are meant for suppliers and traders will all need to be on time, and it’s up to you to ensure that it does happen.
While it may involve hands-on work as well, it’s crucial that you understand the importance of local and international business trade, and how it affects the maritime industry. I may sound complicated to you now, but by the time you graduate, it should be as easy as A-B-C.
There will be many people involved in a shipment, and with that many moving parts, you will need to be able to manage every single part, and manage it with fairness, so that all parties are happy.
