Specialized reefer shipping line Baltic Reefers is placed solidly as the world's largest, while Dutch Seatrade, which has trailed the Russian shipping company, has gone down significantly.

According to a new analysis from Dynamar, Baltic Reefers controls 11.4 percent of the operated fleet, while Seatrade – which for many years was the world's largest – is in second place with 7.9 percent of the fleet.
