Effective September 15, 2021, a General Rate Increase (GRI) has been filed for all cargo imported from Asia ports of loading, to U.S.A., Canada, and Mexico ports and ramps of discharge. This is the second General Rate Increase announced for the month of September, 2021. As we get into Peak Shipping Season, it is not uncommon to see General Rate Increases imposed more than once per month. Add the global impacts of Covid-19, extremely tight capacity and intense demand all at the same time and there you go.
The proposed increases are as follows:
General Rate Increase – September 15, 2021
USD 1,800 / 20′
USD 2,000 / 40′
USD 2,250 / 40′ HQ
USD 2,250 / 40′ Reefer
USD 2,532 / 45′
USD 3,200 / 53′
