Problems in port continue
31 Jan, 2017
The problems in the port of Gothenburg continue. We don't receive much information about the progress of the negotiations but especially export containers suffer sever problems as the port only opens up during short intervals for export goods that have an imminent closing-time. The situation in the harbor also creates turbulence regarding import containers. This generates additional costs as waiting hours and container demurrage. We have received indications that additional costs which incurre the LCL traffic will be charged ahead. We hope for your understanding as these costs are directly related to the prevailing conflict situation in the Gothenburg port, and nothing we can influence.
