This week we take a detailed look at shipment delays by country and by destination. We used our own data to illustrate the delays in the global supply chain. We compared 2021 statistics year-to-date with 2019 data (pre-pandemic data) and used hundreds of actual shipments to create this comparison. The information below represents average delays. Your personal experience with your shipments may have faster or slower shipment times.
The shipping industry is now expecting the delays to last into 2022. We continue to advise that shipments should be placed as early as possible to account for delays.
