Bottlenecks in the logistics industry

The logistics industry is confronted with massive bottlenecks on all modes of transport:

Container ships from the Far East are partly fully booked by the end of the year, and rates are skyrocketing. Containers are also in short supply.
Anyone who wants to switch to air freight or rail transport must also expect difficulties. Business is booming and prices are rising accordingly. Due to the elimination of passenger flights, there is a lack of freight capacities in air freight, not only in imports, but also in exports and worldwide.

Lamprecht Transport Ltd. keeps close, reassessing the situation every day and hour. We do our utmost to bring your transports to their final destination within the requested deadline.

If you have any questions: get in touch with your contact at Lamprecht Transport or send us an email. And remember to place your bookings early.
