According to the "maritime Silk Road index" released by Ningbo Shipping Exchange on the 7th, Ningbo export container freight index closed at 2597.4, another record high. According to the analysis of industry insiders, before September this year, it is difficult for container shipping prices to drop. The high freight rate is mainly due to the stable epidemic situation in China, the influx of a large number of overseas orders, and the lack of transport capacity of main routes. In Cixi, a foreign trade enterprise in Zhejiang Province, orders from Europe and the United States have been arranged until August. Due to the lack of space and containers, less than 10 containers are delivered every day, resulting in a large backlog of products.
