Strike in Germany
In Germany, the German Farmers' Association is currently calling for a nationwide strike for rail transport next week, beginning January 8th and concluding January 15th. Rail operators, farmers and freight forwarders will all take part in the strike which is expected to significantly restrict transportation throughout the country and at German Ports. Please plan for impact to port areas and road/railways in the next week. Our colleagues in Germany are working diligently to mitigate any potential delays caused by this strike, and we hope to keep cargo flowing as smoothly as possible.
We will continue to keep you informed on this situation, and please contact us with any questions.
