What Is Stevedore ?

Stevedoring refers to the process of loading and unloading cargo from ships, typically carried out at ports by specialized workers known as stevedores or longshoremen. This operation includes not only moving goods on and off vessels but also securing, inspecting, and sometimes organizing the cargo to ensure safe and efficient transport. Stevedoring plays a crucial role in global trade, as it directly impacts the turnaround time of ships and the overall flow of goods through supply chains. Modern stevedoring often involves the use of advanced machinery and coordination with port logistics systems to handle large volumes of cargo quickly and safely.
