- Demand 📦: Cargoes - as circulated in the freight market by charterers (mining/trading groups, industrials, manufacturers, operators etc), or the brokers that represent them.
- Supply 🚢: Vessels - the commercial opening positions of vessels as circulated in the freight market by shipowners and/or vessel operators, or the brokers that represent them.
NOTE: At any one time, Shipfix 'sees' the same Cargo or Vessel Position multiple times from multiple market participants. We therefore 'de-duplicate' the data so that each Cargo or Vessel Position is only counted ONCE in the aggregated & anonymised data.
