Global media coverage surrounding COVID-19 outbreaks provide us with valuable and often detailed information around public health and the initiatives to curtail the spread of the virus. We wish to add our commentary around the current impact we are observing in the global supply chain through the representation of our client’s interests around the world.
Demand:
Expect rates and capacity to continue to deteriorate over the coming months due to congestion and the Delta variant. Early dialogue with your customers regarding delays should serve you well especially for goods ex-China as halting the virus is “Top Priority”. Again, do not make any unrealistic promises regarding in-store dates, this Delta variant and its impacts are making international headlines so your clients will become aware of these impacts if they are not already.
We offer our experiences/observations in the order you are aware of the impact on the International supply chain and what this means for your orders/production and the impact on your clients.
