Updates on France Strike

Tensions continue to run high in France as political unrest causes more strike and protest action. Last Thursday protesters set the door of Bordeaux city hall ablaze, and other large French cities have seen similar protest actions. 

Further disappointing news was received this morning regarding strikes at French ports: 

• Fos-sur-mer Port: Strikes will be held every day this week between the hours of 11am and 3pm. Tuesday, March 28th the port will be closed all day due to National strike.
• Le Havre Port: Strikes will be held every day this week between the hours of 12 and 4pm. Tuesday, March 28th the port will be closed all day due to National strike. 

Our offices in France are working diligently to provide alternative solutions through other European ports, with diversion rates applicable. 

We will continue to keep you updated on this situation and provide updates as they become available.
