It argues that the marketing strategies are the means by which a company achieves its marketing objectives and are related to the tools of the marketing mix. Further, it also brings the trends set up the strategies adopted by the leading shipping companies of the world in order to confirm that the companies understand the importance of marketing and apply improved marketing strategies. Some of the data, which were gathered in an empirical research (by Evi Plomaritou, Institute of Chartered Ship Broker's-Greek Branch) carried out for the top 10 tanker shipping companies and for the top 10 liner operators of container ships used in this paper to exemplify the strategies related to the tools of the shipping marketing mix.
