Managing the storm: FMC's roles in addressing container shortage - Global Supply Chain Week

from FreightWaves LIVE: An Events Podcast · host FreightWaves

Booming imports and the effects of COVID-19 are straining container supply chains while causing transportation rates to surge and port congestion get worse. U.S. exporters, meanwhile, contend there’s more to the picture than just the economy: container line operators should be held to account for declining service and management decisions that are hurting customers’ bottom line. This fireside chat features Federal Maritime Commissioner Carl Bentzel in a discussion about the U.S. Federal Maritime Commission's role in this unprecedented confluence of events and the options the agency has to deal with it.
