S. Atlantic port, load coal to South America and from there send a cargo of Brazilian soybeans to Western Europe.

Par exemple, un affréteur de grain peut prendre livraison d'un navire dans un port du Golfe du Mexique, charger une cargaison de maïs pour le Japon, envoyer le navire en Australie, charger du blé pour le Royaume-Uni, le diriger ensuite sur un port de la côte Atlantique des E.U., charger du charbon pour l'Amérique du Sud et de là transporter une cargaison de soja brésilien vers l'Europe occidentale. L'affréteur doit veiller à utiliser constamment son bateau et, à cette fin, doit posséder une organisation capable d'organiser le mouvement des bateaux et de leur procurer des cargaisons. 1, record 1, French, - affr%C3%A9teur%20de%20grains
