 Global industrialization occurred in response to both consumers and manufacturers demand for lower product prices and availability of goods and services. As a result, products are transported greater distances. Shipping constitutes the majority of logistics costs in the export/import supply chain. Shippers and buyers commonly attempt to minimize these costs by maximizing the capacity of ocean freight containers (cube or weight). A systematic approach was developed to determine which method of loading (floor loading or unitizing on pallets) is most efficient in regard to cost and time.
