Affected by the epidemic, more and more countries have been "closed" for the second time, 
and the ports of many countries have become full of containers.
Lack of containers, exploded cabins, dumped containers, jumping into ports, 
and frantically rising freight rates, foreign traders are under unprecedented pressure.

In the latest news, European freight rates have increased by 170% year-on-year, 
and Mediterranean freight rates have increased by 203% year-on-year.
 In addition, as the epidemic in the United States becomes more serious and air transportation routes are blocked, 
shipping prices will continue to rise.

Last week, due to the global new crown epidemic, China's export container shipping market continued to be at a high level. 
The freight rates of many ocean routes increased to varying degrees, and the composite index continued to rise. 
With the increase in freight rates and surcharges, Asia-Europe shippers will face more pain.

Now is peak season, all the goods in china are face ship problem, all the port in china are shortage of container.
Printwant spend too much cost to hold container ,and the sea freight will be not go down until 2021.
So if you have new order ,we suggest you confirm order soon. and we try our best to ship it earlier.
If delay to confirm the order ,not only face high sea freight ,also no container.

PrintWant will keep in touch with our customers and share the shipping news with you.
