Stalker was chatting to one business owner who was being hit by the cost of getting raw materials from China.
The cost of transportation was now the most critical factor with a load costing four times more to bring to Ireland.
The phenomenon is being felt all over the UK and Europe and quite possible globally.
It seems the problem stems from shipping containers - it’s not that there aren't enough of them, but they seem to be in all the wrong places. It’s a question of logistics.
Stalker is sure that there is someone out there who might be able to explain it better, but for now that’ll have to do you by way of explanation.
