"We rented out all the containers we could find between July and October, but the market has' dried up 'and there are no empty containers in the market," a Maersk spokesman said.
As for the freight so expensive! In the end, it is because Europe and the United States gradually resumed work and lifted the ban and port transport trade gradually recovered!
As the production capacity of many countries has been paralyzed, China, which was the first country to recover from the impact of COVID-19 and get its production back on track, has become the world's factory center in a short time. Orders from Southeast Asian countries such as Bangladesh, Vietnam and India have shifted to China, which has led to a surge in shipments from China.
Moreover, China's recent signing of the Comprehensive Economic Partnership Agreement (RCEP) with 14 countries will have a positive impact on long-term shipping demand. The agreement has helped to increase economic competitiveness between countries, regional activity and related transportation development. So in the long run, China, as the world's largest producer, can expect to benefit from large-scale exports to other member countries. Coupled with the arrival of the consumption season, at present, in the following period of time, shipping prices to maintain a high level is still a large probability event.
