Vitaliano Tobruk (pictured above), Moody’s Supply Chain Industry Practice Lead said:
“The current congestion and delays at European ports arise from multiple factors: Red Sea conflicts causing rerouting, tariff-driven shipment unpredictability, and infrastructure constraints built in a period of predictability. These issues are unlikely to disappear soon and will likely continue to pressure supply chains through the rest of the year. Companies can benefit from investing in supply chain visibility, diversifying logistics options, and building in resilience through flexible routing and inventory buffers.”
