Recap: on September 23, six family-owned trucking companies filed a RICO complaint (here's my previous analysis) against CH Robinson and Total Quality Logistics in the Eastern District of Texas.

One battle doesn’t win a war, but just getting to a stage where South Africa’s port system can now be reformed is an achievement by itself. The decision of South Africa’s government to formally endorse the separation of Transnet National Port Authority (TNPA), the country’s de facto port landlord, from the Transnet ra…
A huge rise in Colombia's ecommerce imports are putting pressure on inbound air cargo capacity, with airlines and operators reporting thousands of tonnes arriving each week and demand for space continuing to grow. “Colombia is absolutely booming,” said one airfreight wholesaler that specialises in perishables. “It’s i…
More often than not, a forwarder closes a clean month and still watches the margins come in light. Most forwarders already know where it went: into the charges that were never recovered and the costs that were never meant to happen. A demurrage charge that was never passed on to the customer. A haulier dispatched befo…
Colombo’s increasing popularity as a transhipment hub is heaping cost pressure onto forwarders and shippers on the India-US tradelane, the Sri Lankan gateway’s newfound revenue stream having provoked a worsening tide of congestion. Recognising India is facing its own congestion issues, particularly at Mundra and Nhava…
Maersk has lost both its partners on Asia–East Coast South America in three months, and what looks like a local reshuffle is the alliance map redrawing on a trade the alliances never formally covered. In September, Zim quit Maersk's ASAS loop to launch the AS3/ZFS with Hapag-Lloyd; yesterday, Maersk and CMA CGM said t…
The beginning of China’s Golden Week national holiday yesterday appears to have coincided with a plateauing of the strong pricing peak that persisted on the transpacific trades throughout September. “Spot rates from Far East to the US ticked up again on 1 October, but we can say with a level of confidence that the mar…
Flydubai has had an interesting week – but the drama on the Tel Aviv flight rather overshadowed its launch of a freighter service in a bid to catch growing demand for ecommerce, specialised shipments and regional trade ill-served by narrowbody belly capacity. Yesterday, the airline introduced three B737-800 freighters…
Later this month, finance ministers from APEC's 21 member economies meet in Hong Kong, the first time the city has hosted the gathering.

Athens provided the backdrop for Aviation Connect 2026 this week, with sunshine, warm temperatures, and the occasional rain shower – a fittingly changeable setting for an event that had plenty going on. The Tuesday-to-Thursday event spread delegates across a collection of rooms and tracks covering pharma, GSSAs, air c…
Hapag-Lloyd duly raised its 2026 profit guidance this week – a palatable appetiser before Mærsk, its partner in the Gemini shipping alliance, does the same (again) in a month's time? Those in the bull camp think so. The Danish carrier, which reports third-quarter results on 5 November, is forecast to disclose quarterl…
CMA CGM announced today that it has completed its $1.4bn takeover of FedEx’s contract logistics business, FedEx Supply Chain, which is set to be folded into the shipping line’s contract logistics arm Ceva.

October will see almost all global ocean carriers make a tentative return to Suez transits on Asia-Europe sailings, after revised pro forma shipping schedules show the Premier Alliance is set to send one of its vessels on the route through the Red Sea and Egyptian waterway. The schedule of the 8,100 teu One Continuity…
In a move that could be a blow to air cargo booking platforms, WiseTech Global expects more forwarders to book airfreight directly within CargoWise, as it expands its airline connections and opens the platform to general sales and service agents. ATC Aviation Services, part of World Freight Company (WFC), has become t…
Thai Airways has landed something of a reprieve from an embargo on cargo services, after concerns over the country’s export sector prompted last-minute government intervention to tackle major labour and equipment shortages provoked by widespread flooding late last week. Having, on Tuesday, announced a six-day suspensi…
Wenzhou’s launch of a direct container shipping service to West Africa highlights a broader transformation under way across China’s port network, as improved infrastructure and rising demand from inland manufacturing industries blur the traditional distinction between river and sea ports. Situated in Zhejiang province…
I have talked to quite a few investors and trade sources in recent weeks, looking for consensus about DSV's existential crisis as well as Kuehne + Nagel's temporary rebound on the stock market and leadership, or lack thereof in the post-KMK world. Reality With that in mind. "Am I going to pay 25x forward earnings for …
US consumers will spend 6.7% more online this shopping season than last year, as the mix of goods shifts and the share of internet purchases increases – partly thanks to AI. However, one industry expert does not expect a significant increase in parcel volume, nor serious delivery bottlenecks. Despite inflation, US con…
Airfreight is becoming an increasingly important contingency option for shippers, but new rules on direct air waybills could cause complexity, according to Global Shippers Forum director James Hookham. At Aviation Connect in Athens this week, Mr Hookham said air had traditionally been regarded as “Plan B”, but since C…
The closure of the Hormuz Straits, now approaching its eighth month, has been predicted to lead to the permanent loss transhipment traffic for the Gulf’s two largest container facilities, Jebel Ali and Khalifa. Prior to the outbreak of the US-Israel-Iran conflict, the two UAE ports were a favoured waypoint for relay t…
Hapag-Lloyd’s hopes of acquiring Zim appear to be lying in tatters after regulators reportedly terminated a review of the deal, declaring the proposed framework no longer valid, effectively throwing the process back to the starting line. Israel’s Government Companies Authority (GCA) ended a review of the acquisition p…
CH Robinson has strongly refuted allegations in a racketeering lawsuit brought by six US trucking companies, and confirmed that carriers within the Super Ego network are no longer part of its freight network. The company told The Loadstar that the complaint mischaracterised its carrier relationships and inaccurately d…
Look here: A fuel bill explains much of SF Holding's weak second quarter at its latest update, but it does not by itself explain the stock's valuation. SF trades between FedEx and UPS on 2026 earnings, but at less than half their EV/Ebitda multiple. KLN trades more cheaply still, but SF's 51.52% holding is worth only …

In case you missed it: US Customs and Border Protection (CBP) can now void an importer of record (IOR) number the moment it finds inaccurate or borrowed details on Form 5106, and it tells the importer afterwards. The brokers and forwarders whose addresses and inboxes sit on those forms are the ones who will get the ph…
Nairobi appears to be moving beyond its traditional role as a flower-export gateway, with international cargo operators seeing new two-way flows emerging across perishables, ecommerce, pharmaceuticals and other time-sensitive cargo.

  A profitable quote does not always become a profitable shipment. In this episode of The Loadstar Podcast, host Charlotte Goldstone asks where freight forwarders lose money between booking and delivery, and what they can do to protect their margins. Emma Crumpton, enterprise solutions director at Portcast, expla…
On September 17, 2025, CH Robinson published its Carrier of the Year winners. In the category for fleets of more than 1,000 trucks, the list read “Super Ego, Chicago, IL.” It was the kind of announcement a company posts, a few people like, and everyone forgets. A year later, six family-owned trucking companies put it …
FIDELITY's Jurrien Timmer writes: From playa decompression to P/E compression As has been the case for a few weeks now, the relative calm of the headline S&P 500 (SPX) masks quite a bit of turbulence underneath. The index is only 1% below its most recent all-time high as earnings continue to boom and margins conti…
