1 Containerization and letter of credit
•Containerization:
•Containerization is like using standardized boxes to transport goods. Just like how you use a lunchbox to carry your food, containerization uses large metal boxes to carry goods across different modes of transportation like ships, trains, and trucks.
•Advantages:
•Efficiency: Containers make loading and unloading goods faster because they’re all the same size and shape. It’s like playing Tetris with boxes!
•Security: Containers protect goods from damage and theft during transportation. Once sealed, it’s difficult for anyone to tamper with the contents.
•Cost-Effective: Since containers can be easily transferred between ships, trains, and trucks, it reduces the time and cost of handling goods at various points.
•Standardization: All containers follow the same size and shape standards, making it easier for companies to plan and optimize their logistics.
