Argentina - FOB Trucking Charges increase 10% effective August 23, 2011

Due the recent difficulties in moving cargo out of Argentina by truck (insufficient fuel supply, road restrictions and winter blockages), local trucking rates have increased to offset rising operation costs. Effective with trucking shipments from August 23, 2011 on, there will be a 10% increase on FOB trucking charges.

We will continue to attempt to mitigate increases wherever it is possible while still negotiating adequate trucking equipment and bookings. For more information on the impact to your shipping needs contact your sales representative directly.
