Shipping routes are established, efficient, and often regulated maritime paths used by vessels to transport goods between ports, acting as the backbone of global trade. 

Shipping routes directly influence efficiency, costs, and delivery reliability, all of which have an impact on the supply chain. Well-optimized routes ensure on-time delivery, helping businesses meet customer KPIs. Efficient routes also minimize transit time, which reduces inventory holding costs and accelerates the flow of goods.
