Yesterday of International Logistics
More than 20 years ago, companies responded to many difficulties in international trade, and at that time they mainly focused on late and slow tax rebates. Over time, non-tariff trade barriers such as anti-dumping and anti-subsidy appeared. Not long ago, Sino-US trade frictions and exchange rate fluctuations have intensified. It can be said that China's foreign trade has always been facing difficulties and moving forward.
However, the current international logistics problems have never been thought of. The international shipping market has been sluggish all these years, and the shipping barometer—Baltic Sea Index has repeatedly hit new bottoms, and always feels that there is overcapacity. Near-ocean Japanese routes often have zero freight. Just over a year ago, the author would receive emails from domestic and foreign freight forwarding companies from time to time to promote their products and services. The freight on some routes turned out to be negative. At that time, I was curious to see if I made a mistake. So I wrote back to verify, and the answer was that it was indeed a negative number, that is to say, the freight forwarding company also slapped a certain amount of U.S. dollars when shipping a box. This is totally different from the current situation of "a box is hard to find". Printed that old saying-only when you lose it will you feel particularly precious.
