Ben Farrell: 作为CIPS的CEO,我认为目前全球供应链正面临前所未有的挑战。地缘政治风险,特别是中东冲突,以及持续的贸易战和关税政策,导致了供应链中断和不确定性,这让全球供应链的领导者们感到非常焦虑。这种焦虑程度甚至超过了新冠疫情时期。全球供应链日益相互关联,使得问题更加复杂。例如,以色列制造的商品和用于水处理的磷酸盐衍生物等问题在世界各地涌现,同时,不同的技术产品也受到供应链中断的影响。我认为各国政府需要认真思考本国对国际供应链的依赖程度,以及这是否会对国家长期韧性构成风险。虽然下个月的情况可能会有所改善,但从战略层面思考国家和企业在供应链方面的韧性更为重要。 Hannah Stelzl: 作为鹿特丹港的集装箱主管,我希望世界能够继续致力于可靠、高效和可持续的产品,以确保社会供应链的安全。港口作为关键货物的运输枢纽,其重要性在于集装箱内的食品、药品和生产所需的重要物资。我们正处于地缘政治、技术和社会文化发展同时达到顶峰的时期。 Emily Stausperl: 作为Zanetta的资深市场分析师,我认为目前的情况并不令人意外。多种因素共同作用导致了新的完美风暴,给许多供应链带来了担忧和混乱。关税是影响北欧地区最重要的因素,它改变了货运量和船舶的部署地点。虽然红海航运绕行非洲已成常态,但贸易战导致的贸易流向变化才是真正的问题。世界需要更多的可预测性,美国进口关税的最终决定、欧洲的罢工以及其他事件都让托运人意识到需要做好准备。企业不应只关注最低价格,而应与供应商或货运代理建立良好关系,以便在出现问题时获得帮助。目前的情况与疫情初期非常相似,关税和中东局势都让托运人对未来几周的情况不乐观。
