Episode 32: Zencargo's December Ocean Update with Richard Fattal
“We don't anticipate any shocks on the demand side coming into December. Whilst Black Friday is a peak period, and the run-up to Christmas, we do think that businesses will be running through existing stock until the new year”

In the latest episode of Freight to the Point, Marina Lennie and Richard Fattal sit down to explore what has happened in the last month and how it has affected the market.
