Significant events
- “The first quarter of 2024 saw the initial impacts of the Red Sea situation, with MSC ships not transiting the Suez Canal and redirecting via the Cape, thereby reducing the inbound cargo due to the longer transit time. The conflict in the Red Sea at the end of 2023, placed significant challenge onto the global supply chain, closing off a major trade route.”
