For every fully freighted container being shipped by sea, there exist approx. 4 - 7 extra (unproductive) containers in the supply chain. The cost of this huge extra container inventory, plus storage-, repositioning- and tracking costs by ocean carriers world-wide amount to an annual cost in excess of $23 billion annually.
