Israel | Shipping companies announced price increases of tens of percent

Israeli shipping company ZIM announced that from November 1 it will charge an additional $1,000 to $1,600 per container (depending on the size of the container), representing a price increase of 30-35%.

The reason for the price increase is excess demand for the company’s services.

Almost simultaneously, foreign shipping companies servicing Israeli routes – MSC, One, Evergreen – announced price increases in similar proportions.

Let us recall that earlier the air cargo company Challenge Airlines Israel announced an increase in prices for its services due to excess demand.
