Dear customer, We want to keep you informed about developments currently affecting global supply chains. We are currently monitoring disruption across parts of the Middle East which is impacting logistics routes including internal transport networks, sea freight lanes and air freight corridors. As a business that sources the majority of its products from the Far East and wider Asia, our teams are proactively reviewing the situation and working closely with supply and logistics partners to minimise any potential disruption to customers. Current Position Sea Freight At present there are no significant issues affecting sea freight shipments. However, congestion at major hub ports such as Singapore could begin to develop as global shipping routes adjust. This may lead to some delays in the coming weeks. Air Freight & Courier Services We are currently experiencing some disruption and delays due to airspace closures across parts of the Middle East, including major logistics hubs such as Dubai. As a result, air freight and courier costs have increased by approximately 20–25%. Our buying and supply chain teams are actively monitoring developments and taking steps wherever possible to mitigate any impact on product availability. |
