Golden Week Impact on China’s Supply Chain 🇨🇳

🚨 October 1-7: During this national holiday, factories and ports across China close, causing major production halts and shipping delays. Expect:

• Pre-holiday rush: Congested ports and container shortages.
• Post-holiday bottlenecks: Weeks of backlog as businesses catch up.
• Rising shipping costs: Limited vessel space and increased rates.

What to do:

• Pre-book shipments early 📦
• Communicate with suppliers and freight forwarders 🛠️
• Build extra lead time ⏳

Prepare in advance to avoid delays!
