Maersk warns of typhoon-related congestion at East Asian ports

Maersk has issued a further update on the impact of the East Asia typhoon season on regional supply chains. The carrier said recurring severe weather is causing congestion at several of the region’s busiest ports. The disruption has also reduced the number of vessels arriving on schedule. Maersk advised customers to review their logistics arrangements and identify where they may need additional flexibility in the coming weeks. Shippers should assess priority cargo and consider adding buffer time to their schedules, particularly for time-sensitive shipments.
