The Freight Buyers' Club

A Container Tidal Wave? With Mark Chadwick, Global Shippers Association


Listen Later

In this episode of The Freight Buyers Club, Mike King is joined by Mark Chadwick, President of the Global Shippers Association, representing some of the world’s largest cargo owners. With the highest US and China tariffs now temporarily paused, shippers are rushing to move backlogged cargo — creating a tidal wave of container volumes heading straight for the US.

Mark unpacks what this means for global supply chains, peak season prep, and freight buying strategy. From the possibility of rising spot rates to contract survival tactics and the risk of further policy shocks, this conversation is essential listening for anyone who moves cargo, buys freight, or needs to understand where the market is headed.

Container chaos, political whiplash, and a whole lot of volume. Buckle up.
