What is Stevedoring?

Stevedoring, the process of loading and unloading cargo from ships, is a meticulously coordinated operation to ensure the efficient and secure movement of goods. Beginning with detailed planning and coordination involving stakeholders like shipping companies and port authorities, the process encompasses the arrival of vessels at designated berths. Stevedores carefully review cargo documentation to understand specifics and employ specialized handling equipment, such as cranes and conveyor systems, to ensure optimal efficiency and cargo safety.
