Geopolitical crises, weather disruptions, tax adjustments, and growing demand in Asia are all factors reshaping the logistics business. To keep abreast of developments and anticipate future challenges, DHL Global Forwarding is continuing its series of webinars, to which we kindly invite players from the logistics industry.
Red Sea Crisis Cuts Global Capacity
Since the COVID 19 pandemic, one incident has followed another. Global supply chains have been severely stressed in recent years. 2024 is no exception. The most obvious example is the Red Sea, where safe shipping through the Bab al-Mandab Strait is currently nearly impossible. Longer shipping routes around Africa are constraining global transportation capacity, increasing demand for air freight, and driving up ocean and air freight rates.
These dynamics and more will shape the transport logistics industry in 2024. Logistics and supply chain professionals are now faced with the question: What will the second half of 2024 look like? And how can we best prepare for 2025?
Everything You Need to Know for the Second Half of 2024
Our webinar series on current developments in the global freight forwarding market is designed to help you keep track of what is driving the global exchange of goods today and what to expect in the future.
We will present and discuss the latest events and trends in three thematic blocks on the global freight types. Among others, the following questions will be addressed:
- What is the current state of the freight markets?
- How did freight rates develop last quarter and what can we reckon with?
- What are the prospects for the coming months and how can we best prepare for them?
Our experts in air and ocean freight not only answer these and other questions, but also develop solutions with you to proactively prepare for coming market movements.
