After the spectacular consolidation wave of 2005 and the consecutive integration pains of 2006, carriers involved took a breather to prepare for the next step: not so much more companies (all told, there still are nearly 60 profiles) but much, much larger ships instead.

Not yet this one, but many other answers about the main enablers of globalisation are found in this 2007 edition of the Top 25 Container Liner Operators - don’t miss it - it is IMMEDIATELY available!
