About the company

Maersk is a ocean shipping and integrated logistics organization. Its current public materials identify Ocean, Logistics & Services, Terminals as useful ways to understand its activities. Maersk reports Ocean, Logistics & Services and Terminals. The three businesses connect vessel capacity, inland logistics and port infrastructure, so the chart shows operating segments rather than an invented captain-to-terminal reporting ladder.

This QueryChart tree puts those disclosed areas next to a single, separately marked leadership branch for Vincent Clerc. The business branches describe a public portfolio, not a confidential employee hierarchy. A line between a category and an offering means the offering belongs in that published category; it does not say that a particular executive personally manages every team shown.

Showing them side by side is more informative than drawing an unsupported chain of managers, particularly when the public materials report a portfolio or service line rather than a complete internal org chart.

Maersk reports Ocean, Logistics & Services and Terminals. The three businesses connect vessel capacity, inland logistics and port infrastructure, so the chart shows operating segments rather than an invented captain-to-terminal reporting ladder. The terminals business runs port infrastructure that handles containers and vessel calls. The diagram makes that distinguishing feature visible while keeping the named leadership layer separate. It is useful as a starting point for an editable company chart; users can replace the public groupings with their own teams, roles and verified reporting relationships.

Advantages and disadvantages

The Ocean branch uses a publicly described company-specific grouping.

A portfolio branch does not prove an individual reporting line.
