Will we see a US port strike in January? Experts weigh in
A report on the Supply Chain Dive website canvasses the opinions of a variety of experts about whether we will see a strike across US East and Gulf Coast ports from mid January, and they all appear to have differing views on the likelihood of a strike, which would add to the logistics hurdles shippers are already facing.
This continues to cause concerns to Davies Turner, and we will monitor the situation and advise customers that use our portfolio of international ocean freight operations to and from the US East and Gulf Coasts, which include LCL and FCL import and export operations.
The logistics and maritime experts shared their take on whether the ILA will strike in January through a series of interviews, emails and LinkedIn posts. You can dive in to learn about the negotiation’s sticking points and potential risks, by reading the full report at the following link: https://tinyurl.com/4nchua88
Davies Turner remains committed to helping clients manage the difficult situations facing container shipping at present and mitigate where possible additional costs incurred. Our ocean freight team will endeavour to keep in close contact with all clients to provide updates on specific movements.
