Market Intelligence Ocean Annual Conference 2022

Managing Cost and Capacity in an increasingly complex environment

10-11 October, 2022 | Cologne, Germany

Location: Früh Conference Lounge | Früh am Dom

After two years of across the board, unprecedented rate increases, markets are returning to a more differentiated development. While some trades are experiencing a turnaround toward lower rates, others are still on record levels without sign of immediate weakening.  

Meanwhile, shippers’ focus is gradually shifting from securing capacity toward cost control despite facing IMO 2023 greenhouse gas reduction measures plus political developments with potential to deeply affect market dynamics in years to come. 

As freight procurement and supply chain management professionals face unusually complex circumstances, we’re delighted to return to our popular and successful two-day live conference format for a strategic discussion of shared challenges and opportunities.
