Logistics operators are bracing for a cascade of sea containers that bring new congestion to supply chains as shipping networks work through backlogs from the Suez Canal blockage

Once vessels delayed by the Ever Given arrive in Europe, “you’re going to have a backlog, because it takes up to 48 hours to unload each ship and there will be multiple vessels arriving at the same time,” Mr. Gaskin said.

The shipping lines may try to make up lost time on schedules by canceling some port calls for ships that make multiple stops in Europe, Mr. Gaskin said. The Suez blockage raises important questions for manufacturers and other exporters who will have to pay closer attention to the availability of equipment and transportation when they seek overseas sales, said Douglas Kent, executive vice president of strategy and alliances at the Association for Supply Chain Management.
