Bitastub has maintained a good reputation in the shipbuilding and shipping industries, with companies such as Jaquipe Shipping dominating the national shipbuilding industry for over a millennium. Since the present-day, Bitastub as the Daruza capital Jaquipe, was an important port city nationally and globally, alongside modern-day Sofide, Gerona, Aytingin, Salvací, and Figayace. In modern-day Qenuga, Bitastub still maintains its position as the "Shipbuilding City of Qenuga" and in riverine transportation as many of the port cities waned in relevance throughout the centuries.
