The dissertation examines the policy of the Greek government towards the country’s shipping industry seeking to identify the key strategies that made shipping in Greece so successful. The review of literature touches on the history of the Greek fleet and ship-owners, the background of the Greek national maritime policy, the global domination of the Greek shipping businesses, the functions of the Ministry of Mercantile Marine (MMM), etc. A case study is conducted of two coastal shipping companies (A and B) as examples of the Greek shipping industry. The research is based on qualitative, quantitative and inductive approaches using secondary and primary sources including surveys, interviews and questionnaires. Conclusions are made about the improvements that can be introduced by the Greek state in the development of their shipping industry.
