The freight carrier companies are the ones that are primarily losing money- the containers will continue to be a boon, especially since the Japan quake. Too many of the shipping companies have ships that are too big for a lot of ports, so they have to keep a good inventory of different class ships, so they don't lose money from using smaller ships when port can handle bigger ones.

Need containers, both dry and refrig.
