More companies are taking their freight to the skies as the holidays begin, sacrificing the cost-effectiveness of ocean shipping to ensure products arrive in time.
“I’m determined not to let the global supply chain issues interfere with the holidays, and I’m committed to supporting independent retailers,” Warner said in a statement.
Supply chain bottlenecks, including a backlog of container ships outside the ports of Los Angeles and Long Beach, have locked some shippers’ inventories in transit. According to Salesforce, product catalogs over Cyber Week dropped 6% year over year in the U.S. as retailers grappled with logistical hurdles.
