For the second post in our e-commerce series, we’ll consider how OCEAN cargo is impacting AIR cargo. Is the current state of ocean cargo affecting shipping rates and airfreight volumes and if so, how? Potential Drivers: 📈Peak Volume - We’re seeing a spike as peak season holiday inventory shipping begins. It typically starts in July and continues through August. This is impacting all segments of the delivery industry. 📦 Capacity - It is hard to find available space on ships due to volume spikes as well as congestion and delays at ports.
