Several major container terminals, including Sydney, Melbourne, Brisbane, and Freemantle, have been affected by a nationwide strike by dockworkers in Australia. Due to the ongoing strike and chaos, the arrival of goods at the port is facing serious delays!


Two weeks have passed, how is the situation at Australia's main container ports? The answer is: Under the combined influence of strikes, congestion, and harsh weather, multiple port areas in Australia have experienced significant delays in shipping schedules!


Just now, a shipping company has issued a notice that some shipping schedules have experienced serious delays of 4 to 5 days! It is reported that the major port paralysis in Australia began at the beginning of this month when DP World dock workers across Australia launched strikes. Firstly, there was a strike by approximately 1800 dock workers at Brisbane Port!


Subsequently, port workers in Fremantle, Melbourne, and Sydney announced that they were joining the strike wave in Brisbane!


What's even more serious is that the nationwide and significant strike did not end in a short period of time, but continued, and even escalated further this Monday!!


Faced with the delay in shipping schedules caused by the nationwide strike in Australia, foreign trade freight forwarding companies need to pay special attention, communicate with carrier shipping companies in a timely manner, understand the situation of shipping delays, and communicate well with Australian customers to negotiate and solve the problem of delayed delivery of goods!
