The Shipping Association of Barbados (SAB) is the national shipping institution of Barbados with its headquarters in Bridgetown. Formed in 1981, the association consists primarily of ship members and stevedore companies who meet on a monthly basis to discuss common problems, share information on new technology and to analyse trends in the market place. As the voice of shipping in Barbados, the SAB seeks also to provide a forum of consultation for members to ascertain their views on shipping in the island and also to collect and circulate statistical information on the subject. SAB is a wider member of the Caribbean Shipping Association (CSA) where shipping policies are discussed with neighbour Dutch, French and Spanish speaking states in the Caribbean.
