Freight rates from China have dropped 77% – but not for long.

In last quarter 2024, companies were paying $2,600 per TEU on shipments from China.

In February 2025, rates have unexpectedly fallen below $600 per TEU.

This kind of price shift has a major impact on the bottom line, but it won’t last.

Carriers have already signalled a General Rate Increase (GRI) is coming, meaning prices will climb as demand picks up.

Waiting could cost your business thousands.

Now is the time to act.

1. Lock in low rates before the market rebounds
2. Use strategic freight tendering to secure stable, below-market pricing
3.  Get ahead of GRI increases and protect your margins

Freight prices shift fast. If you haven’t benchmarked your costs recently, now is the time.

Let’s discuss how much you could be saving before rates jump.
