What a brilliant day we had at Lord’s!🏏

As the headline sponsor of the Synonymous Sport Lord’s Long Room Lunch 2026, we were delighted to welcome our guests for a very special day in support of Help For Heroes.

We started with a VIP breakfast in the Bowlers’ Bar and a tour of Lord’s before heading into the iconic Long Room. Graham Gooch OBE and Lord Ian Botham kept everyone entertained with some brilliant stories, followed by great food, plenty of laughs and a fantastic charity auction. Best of all, we raised thousands of pounds for Help for Heroes.

These are just a few of our photos from the day - there are plenty more to come! Thank you to the Synonymous Sport team for organising such a great event and to everyone who came along and enjoyed the day with us💙

September could be a particularly busy month for freight coming out of China🇨🇳

After weeks of weather-related disruption and congestion at major ports, two major public holidays are now approaching within days of each other.

Mid-Autumn Festival takes place from 25-27 September, followed by National Day Golden Week from 1-7 October, leaving just three days between the two holiday periods.

For importers, this could mean further pressure on space, equipment and sailing schedules as businesses look to move cargo before the holidays begin.

If you have shipments planned for September or early October, we recommend booking as early as possible. Speak to our team about upcoming departures and availability👉www.beckchoice.co.uk/contact

Further freight disruption is expected across Northern Europe as industrial action affects several major ports and transport routes⚠️

A 48-hour strike is currently restricting operations at six German seaports, including Hamburg, Bremen, Bremerhaven and Wilhelmshaven.

Port workers in Rotterdam, Amsterdam and Zeeland are also due to stop handling ships between 11:15 and 19:00 today, followed by a 24-hour Dutch rail strike planned for 9 September.

With low water levels continuing to restrict capacity on parts of the Rhine, the overlapping disruption could lead to vessel delays, terminal congestion and problems moving containers inland by rail and barge.

Customers with cargo moving through Germany or the Netherlands should allow additional time and prepare for possible changes to vessel schedules, terminal appointments and onward transport.

We’ll continue to monitor the situation and update affected customers.

Always a good day when there's golf involved!⛳

Ray Palmer and Simon Mullins recently represented Beckchoice at the latest London Freight Club Golf Society Golf Day at South Herts Golf Club.

A great chance to catch up with plenty of familiar faces from across the freight industry, including James Hardy and Ian Matheson, and enjoy some friendly competition and a few good shots along the way...

Thanks to everyone who made it such an enjoyable day, and we look forward to the next one🏌️‍♂️

Repeated typhoon disruption is putting further pressure on two of China's biggest container ports🚢

Following a succession of storms across China's east coast throughout July and August, congestion at Shanghai and Ningbo-Zhoushan continues to build.

Latest operational updates show vessel waiting times at Shanghai's Yangshan terminals reaching up to 11 days, while Ningbo is also experiencing significant delays following further terminal suspensions caused by Typhoon Saudel.

And the impact may not end when the ports reopen. Repeated closures can create vessel bunching, schedule changes and ongoing congestion as carriers work to recover their networks.

For importers, this could mean longer transit times, less predictable schedules and potential cost implications in the weeks ahead.

With China's September and October holiday period also approaching, planning ahead will be particularly important.

We'll continue to monitor the situation and keep our customers updated.

One week until we step inside one of cricket's most iconic rooms...🏏

Lord's has been at the heart of cricket for more than 200 years, and its famous Long Room has witnessed generations of players make their way from the dressing rooms out onto the pitch.

Next Tuesday, it will be the setting for the Synonymous Sport Lord's Long Room Lunch, with Beckchoice proud to be this year's Headline Sponsor.

Hosted by Graham Gooch, with Lord Ian Botham joining as a special guest, the day will bring together great company, fantastic food, plenty of cricketing history and, most importantly, support for Help For Heroes.

We're really looking forward to welcoming our guests to such a special setting. The countdown is officially on!

Dutch port strike planned for September 4th🇳🇱

Businesses moving goods through the Netherlands should prepare for potential disruption on Friday, with industrial action planned across Rotterdam, Amsterdam and Zeeland.

Port workers have been called to stop ship-handling activities between 11:15 and 19:00 local time, which could lead to delays to vessel operations, cargo handling and onward transport.

While the exact level of disruption will depend on individual ports and terminals, delays could continue beyond the strike period as operations recover.

If you have time-sensitive cargo moving through the Netherlands on or around 4 September, we recommend allowing additional lead time where possible.

We'll continue to monitor the situation and update affected customers. Read the full update on our website👉 www.beckchoice.co.uk/news/dutch-port-strike-planned-for-4-september-rotterdam-amsterdam-and-zeeland

Significant delays are being reported at DP World London Gateway today, with long queues affecting hauliers accessing the terminal🚛

Industry reports suggest a possible power-related outage, although the exact cause of the disruption has not yet been officially confirmed by DP World.

The delays will likely have a knock-on impact on container collections and deliveries, so businesses with cargo moving through London Gateway should be prepared for possible schedule changes.

We’re continuing to monitor the situation and will keep our customers updated on affected shipments.
