Problem
Inbound Container volumes higher than outbound from GCR
The Causes
- Lack of outbound cargo and local logistics services;
- Price challenges for Carriers due to cost of containers having to be passed on to shippers;
- Underdeveloped outbound container market vs bulk;
- Carriers are hesitant to ship their own containers to region due to lack of backhaul containerized cargo;
Resulting in…
- Containers accumulating idle or abandoned in the region;
- Lack of cost-efficient logistics options for non-bulk exporters selling FCL and LCL;
- Increase in cost for Shippers / Receivers;
- Lack of outbound business for carriers;
Solution
