why ocean freight from China is so high? 


ARROW container learnt from the website, below reasons maybe tell us why:


1. China is the few country who first control the COVID and industry recovered.

so all the orders from all over the world coming to China,

all China factories are too busy producing.

(raw materials accordingly increased due to big market demands.)


2.too much cargo are waiting for delivery from China to different countries.

but many vessels are stuck at at different ports and cannot discharge the cargo fast due to the COVID.

so the vessels to China are getting less.


3. at the beginning,vessels firstly will wait at port to collect cargos to be full, then go back to China.

but now most of the vessels just drive back to China before the vessel is getting full or just keep it empty.

that means shipping companies will let the consignee bear two journey's cost in one journey shipment.

so freight goes double,trible ,now even worse many times....


4, now China container manufaturing are very hot,

new containers prices increase too much, but still many people cannot get the new containers.

shipping lines cried for more new containers to produce out and still too much cargo waiting at all China different ports for empty containers to load cargo in and delivery them out.

when the cargos are waiting, the freight keep increasing every week.....


people say things will not be better year end of 2022......why ocean freight from China is so high?
