How Trump's Re-Election Will Increase Cargo Volume into Canada and Mexico

Amanda Martyniuk: Head Of Sales, eShipper

Over the last 6 years we have seen a significant upswing of US based companies importing containers into Canada and Mexico in order to facilitate their North American fulfillment. There are many reasons that this has happened, including, but not exclusively limited to the Trump Tariffs that were imposed during his first-term as President.
Trump recently announced that he would impose tariffs of 60% or higher on Chinese goods if he is elected for his second term in office.
Businesses have an opportunity to avoid these tariffs by taking advantage of Section 321—and if they are really savvy, duty drawback.

How Much Does it Cost to Build a Resilient Container Supply Chain?

Carl Lauron : Founder and CEO, BuyCo

Supply Chain resiliency is a mega-trend in our industry. With COVID, the Suez Canal blockage, the war in Ukraine, and fluctuations in box availability and freight rates, we know that disruptions happen. As the backbone of business, supply chains need to be resilient and agile in order to mitigate the risk of disruptions.
In the container supply chain, resiliency means building a network of diversified partners. However, this brings more complexity in managing all the involved parties. In this session, Chad Jones will explain what the cost of a resilient supply chain is and the tools required to manage its complexity.
This is a new and evolving area, where speed is of the essence. Citizen developers, Low code / No Code

Targeting a greener, more efficient containerised commodity supply chain

Fergus Eley: Maritime & Supply Chain Excellence, BHP

BHP uses global shipping liners to move some 50,000 TEUs annually – shipping commodities such as copper, nickel and uranium to customers around the world, and importing all the goods and materials that our Mining Assets require. More broadly BHP is one of the world’s largest dry bulk charterers, and our Maritime team works across all sectors of the maritime industry, including container freight.
We are passionate about decarbonising the world’s maritime supply chains having recently procured 5 Newcastlemax LNG-fuelled bulkers, conducting biofuels trials with our industry partners, and investigating wind-assist technology on the fleet that moves our commodities.
Out ambition is to build deep connections within the containerised freight ecosystem and along the end-toend commodity supply chain to target emissions reduction and efficiency improvements leveraging emerging technologies and solutions.
We believe that data-democritisation is a key enabler to decarbonising our end-to-end supply chains. We think about this in three areas – future fuels, onboard/supply chain innovations and our partnering/chartering choices.
