Carriers such as CMA CGM are planning to use alternative UK gateways to avoid industrial action at the Port of Liverpool.
The update was announced three days into the eight-day Felixstowe strike as other shipping lines rerouted their services, impacting overland operations for goods. The shipping line will give updates as soon as the dates for the strike action are confirmed.
Although the strike action at Felixstowe has ended for the time being, the impact will continue even as work commences again. Zencargo are here to help customers who may be affected by the aftermath of the Felixstowe strikes.
Businesses are encouraged to closely monitor the situation and build contingency plans with their partners.
If you’re a Zencargo customer, our Customer Operations team will be on hand to assist you if your cargo is affected by the Liverpool strike action.
