No doubt you have noticed that in several logistic sectors shortages are arising. Worldwide demand for capacity , means and employees is growing which leads to a severe impact at logistic costs.
In de sea freight sector we noticed the most extreme increase. During March 2021 the rate for a 20’container from Shanghai to Rotterdam was approximately US$ 900,= but nowadays the shipping lines write US$ 8.000,= nearly 10 times more !
Within Europe – fortunately – these kind of tariff increases are not subject for most logistic services although higher indexation as usual will also be applicable.
It has become a daily challenge to for fill all orders and secure a smooth operation. We anticipate as good as possible at the structural shortage of employees and available (transport)capacity. Despite the difficult market situation we focus for 100% with full enthusiasm to handle your order(s) properly.
