- The Iran conflict has caused transport expenses to increase, with surcharges around $200 per 20-foot container passed to consumers.
- Blockades at the Strait of Hormuz and security issues in the Red Sea have forced ships to take longer, more expensive paths around the Cape of Good Hope.
- Maersk faces major delivery delays, severely affecting the supply of imported food in the region.
- A lasting resolution depends on a deal between the US, Israel, and Iran, since naval escorts offer only temporary relief.
So what it means is that ultimately, in this case, these increases will pass to our customers and will pass on to the consumers.— Vincent Clerc, Maersk chief executive, in an interview with the BBC about cost pass-through to customers and consumers amid the Iran conflict.
