A GLOBAL LOOK AT CONTAINERIZATION

Two million containers are forecast to be in service worldwide by 1979, up almost 70% from the ownership in 1975. There will be corresponding expansion in the inventories of chassis, container terminal equipment and containerships. The article deals primarily with the marine phase of containerization's growth. The author sees container leasing as of growing importance in this expansion.
