Since the beginning of spring, Chinese logistics companies have doubled the prices for container transportation. In the near future, a container will be delivered from China by sea at a cost of $6,000, and in the summer — $11,500.
A similar situation is observed with the supply of household appliances and electronics from Turkey.
In this regard, the demand for container transportation has increased, which led to an increase in prices, said Dmitry Denisenko, logistics manager for diHouse.
The head of the Russian representative office of the manufacturer of household appliances Candy-Hoover Group Gleb Mishin confirmed the increase in prices for the supply of goods from China and Turkey.
Due to the termination of activities in the Russian Federation, a number of logistics companies providing such services are heavily guarded. Those who remain are raising prices, we can say that a kind of quasi-monopoly has formed.
