What is the foothold of the global supply chain problem?

What could be the cause of the supply chain interruption? Maybe it's the port congestion, the lack of truck drivers, or the container problem. There are now signs of supply chain disruptions all over the world. It can be said that global supply chain problems must be paid attention to and solutions must be considered.

 What are the consequences of supply chain disruption?

①Shrinking capacity and loading freight

This is the most obvious result. When supply cannot keep up with demand, it is natural for logistics prices to rise, especially container shipping and parcel prices. However, everyone does not need to complain too much about this.

 ②Degraded transportation quality

When people cannot guarantee that they can receive logistics orders in their entirety, there will be quality pressure in the supply chain, and logistics companies may reduce the quality of transportation due to increased freight volumes.

 ③Shrinking of the supply chain market

More and more logistics companies are unable to bear losses and have taken the initiative or are forced to withdraw from the market. Eventually, a series of effects are produced, and a series of incompetent logistics companies disappear in the supply chain. Then, novices dare not join this stagnant market. Eventually, an endless loop is created, and the supply chain remains interrupted.

 Thinking about the disruption of the global supply chain?

How much time and manpower and material resources do we need to solve the current problems in the global supply chain? This is a question that is difficult to answer accurately no matter who it is.

 However, there are some other thoughts that help people find solutions to a certain extent.

 For example, we can pay attention to the barometer of the current market, that is, the revenue results of publicly-traded freight and logistics service companies. The good earnings of these companies indicate that the current market is improving. We do not have the ability to predict the future, but we can summarize good ideas for supply chain management and logistics operations by observing the successful experience of these companies.
