Capitalising on its strategic location, sophisticated port facilities and shipyards, Singapore has developed into a premier International Maritime Centre (IMC) where ships hub and essential ancillary services in shipping, commerce and logistics flourish.

The maritime industry in Singapore is vibrant. It contributes about seven per cent to the Singapore GDP and provides jobs for some 100,000 workers. The industry is forecasted to expand between six and nine per cent over the medium term.

Today, Singapore continues to rank among the top international maritime centres of the world. It boasts a wide and comprehensive range of maritime services that meet the varied and diverse needs of shipowners, operators and all players in the shipping supply chain. These ancillary services are underpinned by Singapore's stable and pro-business government, efficient and highly skilled manpower, an excellent transport infrastructure and high-tech global telecommunications links.

Combined with its other strength as an international business and financial hub, Singapore is your partner in maritime.
