Since the second half of this year, due to the heating up of the epidemic in Europe and the United States, the international logistics capacity has declined, leading to a surge in container ship freight rates. Under the background of tight capacity, the industry has frequently produced container dumping. With the recovery of foreign trade, the shipping market was once “difficult to find one cabin” and “difficult to find one container”. What is the latest situation now?

1: Shenzhen Yantian Port: Containers are in short supply
2: Container factories work overtime to catch orders
3: Foreign boxes cannot be piled up, but domestic boxes are not available
According to analysis, the current global economic recovery is at a different pace and is also affected by the epidemic.
Therefore, the closed loop of container circulation was disrupted. China, which is the first to recover, has a large number of industrial products shipped out, but there are not many industrial products returning from Europe and the United States. The shortage of manpower and supporting facilities in Europe and the United States has also caused the empty boxes to be unable to get out, forming a pile.

It is understood that the freight rates of all routes around the world are currently increasing, but the rate and rhythm of the increase are different. China-related routes, such as the China-Europe route and the China-America route, have increased more than the America-Europe route.

Under this circumstance, the country is facing a shortage of “one box of hard to find” containers, and freight rates have skyrocketed, while many large foreign shipping companies have begun to impose congestion surcharges and peak season surcharges.

At present, in the current environment, there is still a shortage of cabins and containers, one box is hard to find, and the port is jammed everywhere, and the shipping schedule is delayed! Shippers, freight forwarders, and friends ship, do it well and cherish it!
