Although you might not have guessed it, as of 2014, Singapore is the 14th largest exporter and 15th largest importer in the world. This is partially due to its strategically beneficial geographic location and its well-developed port facilities – both of which makes LILLY’s shipping job much easier! The country has relatively few trade barriers, which makes the nation a popular shipping location worldwide. That being said, there are some import restrictions, mainly due to environmental, health, and public safety concerns. For example, importers must have a license to ship rice into the country to ensure both food security and price stability.
There are only two ports in Singapore for all its business:
- Jurong Port
- Port of Singapore
Trade between this archipelago and other nations is greatly facilitated by its strategic location off a sea lane.
