## Latest 10 Supply Chain Review Articles (Updated 2026-07-02)

### 283. Global Port Operations Hit by Fog, Quake Closure and Strong U.S. West Coast Volumes
Date: 2026-06-18 | Category: ports | Source: Maritime News / Kuehne+Nagel
URL: https://cpm-scm.com/supply-chain-review/article-283.html
Summary: A mid-June port operations update shows dense fog disrupting Chinese gateways including Qingdao and Xiamen, an earthquake forcing the full suspension of General Santos in the Philippines, and winter weather blocking Argentine-Chilean hinterland routes. Meanwhile, the Port of Los Angeles processed nearly 840,000 TEU in its latest month, with year-to-date volume up 1% and June bookings projected above 900,000 TEU. Northern Europe and West Africa also reported localized congestion amid yard and equipment imbalances.

### 282. Section 122 U.S. Import Surcharge Scheduled to Sunset on July 24
Date: 2026-06-27 | Category: policy | Source: Greenwich Mercantile
URL: https://cpm-scm.com/supply-chain-review/article-282.html
Summary: The 10% Section 122 import surcharge is set to expire at 12:01 a.m. EDT on 24 July 2026 unless extended by Congress or replaced by another tariff action, according to a 27 June importer checklist from Greenwich Mercantile. Importers are being advised to model entry timing, exemptions, drawback opportunities and replacement-tariff risk before the deadline. The surcharge is one of several overlapping tariff programmes, with Section 301 and Section 232 actions remaining in place even if the Section 122 line sunsets.

### 281. EU De Minimis Duty Exemption Ends, Flat €3 Duty Per Item Takes Effect
Date: 2026-07-01 | Category: policy | Source: DHL / European Commission
URL: https://cpm-scm.com/supply-chain-review/article-281.html
Summary: From 1 July 2026, the European Union removed the €150 duty-free threshold for low-value consignments imported from outside the EU, replacing it with a temporary flat €3 customs duty per item. The measure, part of the EU Customs Reform, runs until July 2028 and will require line-item product identifiers from 1 November 2026. Logistics providers and cross-border sellers face new compliance, classification and landed-cost complexities as consolidated clearance for low-value B2C shipments is also restricted.

### 280. AI Warehouse Robots Move Beyond Pilots to Production Scale in 2026
Date: 2026-06-24 | Category: technology | Source: Trax / Inbound Logistics
URL: https://cpm-scm.com/supply-chain-review/article-280.html
Summary: A 24 June 2026 Trax analysis, drawing on Inbound Logistics, highlights nine AI-powered warehouse robots now operating at production scale rather than as proofs of concept. The systems span autonomous mobile robots, robotic arms with computer vision, and goods-to-person fulfilment, using machine learning to adapt to unstructured environments. The shift is enabling real-time inventory cycle counting, redesigning human-robot workflows, and improving downstream transportation handoffs as distribution centres scale automation ahead of peak season.

### 279. DHL Air Freight Update: Global Demand Up 4% Year to Date, Rates 48% Above Prior Year
Date: 2026-05-31 | Category: freight | Source: DHL Global Forwarding
URL: https://cpm-scm.com/supply-chain-review/article-279.html
Summary: DHL Global Forwarding's May 2026 air freight market update reports global air cargo volumes up 4% year to date, with April demand rising 5% year on year. Capacity grew 2% year on year month-to-date in May, led by Asia, while global spot rates remained stable but elevated at 48% above prior-year levels. The update notes Middle East geopolitical tensions continue to disrupt Asia-Europe corridors, and aircraft delivery delays and EU ETS expansion are keeping cost pressure on carriers.

### 278. WorldACD: Global Air Cargo Rates Stay Elevated as Gulf Capacity Rebuilds
Date: 2026-06-29 | Category: freight | Source: WorldACD / Avia Updates
URL: https://cpm-scm.com/supply-chain-review/article-278.html
Summary: WorldACD data for week 25 (15-21 June) shows worldwide average air cargo rates rising 1% week-on-week to $3.24/kg, with spot rates up 1% to $3.75/kg, despite further capacity returning to Middle East and South Asia markets after the 17 June US-Iran peace memorandum. The MESA capacity deficit narrowed from -30% to -19% versus pre-war levels, and the Gulf-North America gap improved from -33% to -13%. Year-on-year, worldwide spot rates remain 47% higher, supported by persistent bellyhold shortages, elevated jet fuel costs and risk surcharges.

### 277. FedEx Updates Demand Surcharges for U.S. International Services
Date: 2026-06-22 | Category: express | Source: FedEx
URL: https://cpm-scm.com/supply-chain-review/article-277.html
Summary: FedEx updated its Demand Surcharge schedules for U.S. international services on 22 June 2026, applying additional fees during periods of elevated volume, high capacity demand and increased operating costs. The carrier publishes separate export and import surcharge tables and reassesses them regularly based on network shipment volume and capacity. The adjustments reflect continued express network tightness heading into the traditional peak season.

### 276. CMA CGM Expands Surcharge Programme Across Key Trade Routes
Date: 2026-06-25 | Category: ocean | Source: Container News
URL: https://cpm-scm.com/supply-chain-review/article-276.html
Summary: CMA CGM announced a series of new surcharges effective July 2026, including a $500/TEU hazardous cargo surcharge from the Far East to the Indian Ocean, South Africa and East Africa, and a $200/container Peak Season Surcharge from North Europe to the Middle East, Red Sea and Indian Subcontinent. A further $500/container PSS will apply from the Indian Subcontinent to North Europe, the Mediterranean and North Africa from 15 July. The carrier said the measures support reliable service across its global network as peak-season demand builds.

### 275. Asia-US Container Rates Continue Surge as Hormuz Transits Rise
Date: 2026-06-29 | Category: ocean | Source: Hellenic Shipping News / ICIS
URL: https://cpm-scm.com/supply-chain-review/article-275.html
Summary: Transpacific container rates spiked again in the week ending 29 June, with Asia-US West Coast rates reaching $5,200-6,200 per FEU and East Coast rates hitting $6,300-7,500 per FEU, according to Hellenic Shipping News. Drewry's Shanghai-Los Angeles index rose 12% and Shanghai-New York climbed 6% as importers front-load ahead of potential tariffs and peak-season surcharges. Vessel transits through the Strait of Hormuz increased amid the US-Iran ceasefire, though an attack on the Ever Lovely on 25 June kept insurance markets on edge.

### 274. DHL Express Expands European Network Capacity Ahead of Peak Season
Date: 2026-06-23 | Category: express | Source: DHL Express
URL: https://cpm-scm.com/supply-chain-review/article-274.html
Summary: DHL Express announced on 23 June the expansion of its European network capacity, including additional aircraft leases and upgraded sorting hubs in Leipzig and East Midlands, to handle expected peak season volumes. The move comes after the carrier's parent group unveiled a EUR 160 million investment in French infrastructure. DHL said the added capacity will improve service resilience and reduce exposure to single-hub bottlenecks.
