Dear valued Client and Partner
Following a joint announcement by China and the United States to reduce trade tariffs, a potential shift in global shipping routes may be on the horizon.
What to expect:
Carriers may begin reallocating capacity to North American routes.
As a result, space on Mediterranean, European, and UK routes could become more limited.
A surge in North American demand could lead to overbooking and higher sea freight rates.
If this pattern continues, European routes might also experience rate increases due to reduced capacity.
We are closely monitoring the situation to keep you informed and support your shipment planning.
