Important Update on Supply Chain Disruptions in the Red Sea We want to bring your attention to a critical development affecting trade routes in the Red Sea. Recent drone attacks on trade vessels have compelled rerouting measures, leading to significant disruptions in supply chains. Many of the major shipping lines are now avoiding transiting the Suez Canal, and the vessels will be rerouted to the Cape of Good Hope. This will add around 9 000 kilometers to the journey, resulting in additional 10-20 days of transit time. Additionally, this will impact the container equipment availability and cause vessel space shortages. In light of these circumstances, we want to proactively communicate with our valued customers. If you have bookings already en route, we strongly advise planning for potential delays and anticipate changes in scheduling over the coming months. We are committed to providing support and solutions with any possible challenges. Don't hesitate to contact your local Spedman office for more detailed information and assistance. Thank you for your understanding and collaboration.
