  • Container shipping is responsible for moving 90% of the world’s goods, according to the World Economic Forum. But, if shipping containers aren’t at the right place at the right time, the global supply chain may face serious problems. It could result in high inflation, shortages of key materials and products as well as revenue losses to large and small businesses alike. At the same time, over 95% of shipping container manufacturing is happening in the nation that leads the world in exports - China, according to the Federal Maritime Commission. Here’s how shipping containers can save, or cripple, the global economy.

  • @glasshaven.
    @glasshaven. Před měsícem +1

    By controlling shipping container manufacture, they can undercut/influence global trade through pricing, sale volume and manufacture to market timing. They can essentially control the export sector, the question for each country would be; of how much value are our exports to china? I can’t see that import control reduction would be effective leverage against chinas economy, especially as imports are usually required and chosen for their cost effectiveness. The logical option would be to levy an import tax against china if they artificially control shipping container production.

    Capitalism and the desire to want higher remuneration along with ever cheaper goods has priced the manufacture of many of these imports which once were made locally, out of the market. China is responsible for the manufacture of the majority of sea containers and just about everything that's imported inside them. Puts your economy in a precarious position being so reliant when there's disruption to the supply chain.
