What We’re Reading

Peak Season Arrives Early For U.S. Trucking The Journal of Commerce | August 12, 2021 “Strong and sustained demand, combined with widespread supply chain disruption, has advanced the U.S. trucking industry’s traditional peak season by months, tamping down the seasonality normally associated with July and August, according to analysts interviewed by JOC.com. They expect both spot and contract truckload rates to remain strong through the end of the year, even if volumes moderate.”

August To Be Record For Retail Imports, NRF Says FreightWaves | August 10, 2021 “The National Retail Federation is calling for the start of peak season to kick off with a bang. The group sees imports to the nation’s largest retail container ports increasing 12.6% year-over-year in August to 2.37 million twenty-foot equivalent units, ahead of the recent monthly record established in May of 2.33 million… The NRF is calling for a new record in 2021 with full-year imports up 17.5% year-over-year to 25.9 million TEUs.”

Global Warehouse Demand To Surge Through 2024, JLL Says FreightWaves | July 21, 2021 “Worldwide demand for logistics warehousing, already at elevated levels, will continue to surge at least through 2024 as more space will be needed to support growth in multiple industries, notably e-commerce, according to a survey published Wednesday by real estate services giant JLL Inc… Approximately 74% of the respondents forecast at least 5% annual growth in warehousing demand over the next three years. About 28% of the respondents projected 20% annual growth over that span.”
