The activities of freight forwarders and related businesses, such as terminals and ports, have been <span style=\"color: #ff6600\">hampered<\/span> as a result of personnel being advised not to travel or report to work. <span style=\"color: #0000ff\">Increased demand<\/span> for goods and raw materials, and thus the need for shipment, has resulted in higher freight rates. The relatively positive performance of overall average trade, however, masks significant differences across products, economic sectors, and trading relationships. The early 2020 trade collapse did not affect all products equally. Business impacts on specific products, services, and trading partners present a very different picture, as well as created pressures on specific sectors and supply chains that were much more pronounced.<\/span><\/p><\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div><\/section><\/div> <a href=\"https:\/\/docshipper.co.uk\/en\/shipping\/impacts-covid-pandemic-shipping-from-china\/#more-2633\" class=\"more-link elementor-more-link\"><span aria-label=\"Continue reading The Impacts of the Covid Pandemic on Shipping from China\">(more&hellip;)<\/span><\/a>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":1438,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"closed","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"inline_featured_image":false,"footnotes":""},"categories":[5],"tags":[],"class_list":["post-2633","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-shipping"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/docshipper.co.uk\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/2633","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/docshipper.co.uk\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/docshipper.co.uk\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/docshipper.co.uk\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/1"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/docshipper.co.uk\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=2633"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/docshipper.co.uk\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/2633\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/docshipper.co.uk\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/1438"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/docshipper.co.uk\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=2633"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/docshipper.co.uk\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=2633"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/docshipper.co.uk\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=2633"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
