The <i>Journal of Commerce</i> has covered breakbulk shipping — the mode by which all dry cargo was shipped prior to containers — since its 1827 founding. Following the 1950s onset of containerization, modern breakbulk has come to mean a small but important subset of global freight movement, one that includes oversized, out-of-gauge industrial equipment and machinery, rolling stock, non-containerized steel and forest products, palletized and bagged cargo, and energy-related equipment.<br>Led by associate editor Carly Fields and senior research analyst Susan Oatway, the Journal of Commerce addresses topics such as supply and demand, the specialized multipurpose vessel fleet, and the geopolitical, economic and regulatory forces that shape this sector. The annual <i>Journal of Commerce</i> <a href="https://breakbulk.joc.com/en">Breakbulk and Project Cargo Conference</a> brings together decision-makers and industry stakeholders to provide relevant analysis and critical networking opportunities.
