San Antonio Strike Continues
As we reported last week, the strike in Chile's San Antonio port continues with all vessel operations stopped at the moment. Along with the work stoppage, the country is experiencing severe marine weather with heavy swell warnings in place until at least tomorrow. Already this week, one vessel has had to cancel their call and one has been forced to delay their arrival. Containers are currently be rerouted accordingly. If you have any questions regarding a specific container, please reach out to your freight forwarder.
On top of the current strike and the weather issues, yesterday marked the start of the National Truckers Strike in Chile, as truckers are requesting more security measures on the roads and adjustments to fuel prices.
We will continue to monitor these situations and provide updates as they become available.
