Maersk: Congestion in the container supply chain will not improve in the near future

A Maersk executive said that in the reality of strong demand, there is almost no excess capacity in container ships, and the congested supply chain can hardly be alleviated.

Maersk Line’s parent company AP Moller-Maersk A/S Latin America and the Caribbean Senior Vice President Fan Chuyan Robbert van Trooijen recently stated that the demand for container shipping services may still remain at an unusually high level in the near future. With almost no container capacity remaining, carriers and shippers will have to continue to adapt to the tight situation of the container supply chain caused by the pandemic.
