Pricing for shipping changes regularly with the cost of fuel and congestion at ports the container ships call along the way. Occasionally security issues around the world will increase pricing like the Aden gulf surcharge and piracy levies around transiting off the coast of Ethiopia. Peak season surcharges also increase freight charges. Covid19 had one of the most effects on freight and surcharges for congestion and GRI’s or General Rate Increases are occurring on a weekly basis.
