Latest company news about Latest notice! Major shipping companies increase their charges!

Maersk predicts that the supply chain bottlenecks and shortage of containers due to the surge in demand will continue until the fourth quarter of 2021, and then return to normal; Xie Huiquan, general manager of Evergreen Shipping, also said earlier that congestion is expected to be delayed to the third quarter. But the alleviation of congestion does not mean that freight rates will drop.
According to the analysis of Drewry, a well-known British maritime consulting agency, the industry is currently at the peak of an unprecedented business upcycle. Drewry expects that freight rates will fall by 2022, but due to "favorable supply and demand growth trends and skilled capacity management," shipping companies will try to maintain high profits.
Seaspan, the world's largest independent container ship owner, said that the hot market in the shipping market may continue until 2023-2024. Beginning last year, Seaspan has booked 37 ships madly, and these new ships are expected to be delivered in the second half of 2023 to the middle of 2024.
The major shipping companies have recently issued a new round of price increase notices.
