US East Coast & Gulf Coast Port Strike

August 15, 2024

AGI News

Please be advised that we have been notified of possible strike action taking place along the US East Coast & Gulf Coast Ports from 1st October 2024.

The strike action would impact cargo operations from Boston in the north, down to Houston in the South.

We would strongly recommend placing any import or export bookings for the region as soon as you can, to reduce the impact of any delays to your cargo.

Although the strike action is the worst case scenario, it would impact 6 of the 10 busiest ports in the US, so the action would cause major disruption to the supply chain.

Please contact your local office to discuss any new bookings, or shipments you currently have, and the team will be on hand to assist with any queries. And for all of the latest AGI news, don’t forget to follow us on LinkedIn and Facebook!
