As the global shipping industry dedicates today to celebrate the pillars of the global supply chain, our seafarers, MariApps joins in to say a resounding THANK YOU!
Seafarers, our keyworkers, have personified resilience and perseverance in these unprecedented times, and we are so grateful for their tenacity. Being at the core of the shipping and cruise industry and its future, MariApps constantly takes efforts to create products that caters to the human element of shipping and constantly strives to help increase the safety and efficiency of our seafarers.
“The World Maritime Theme for 2021, “Seafarers: at the core of shipping’s future” seeks to increase the visibility of seafarers by drawing attention to the invaluable role they play now and will continue to play in the future. The focus on seafarers comes as the COVID-19 pandemic has placed extraordinary demands on seafarers, with hundreds of thousands of men and women stranded on ships for months beyond their original contracts, unable to be repatriated due to national travel restrictions. A similar number of seafarers are unable to join ships and earn a living. This crew change crisis, which has been ongoing for nearly a year, is a humanitarian emergency that threatens the safety of shipping (read more here).”

- We acknowledge your needs.
- We acknowledge your safety.
- We acknowledge your key role.
- We acknowledge YOU.
A very happy World Maritime Day to all the seafarers and passenger crew (#keyworkers). We appreciate you today and every day!
