If you’ve built a hotel, priced out a home renovation project, or even just tried to purchase a pair of jeans that were on back order over the last 12+ months, then you are intimately aware of just how tumultuous the impact of Covid-19 has been on the ocean container shipping market, and in turn, anyone that has been importing goods since the start of the outbreak.
Many will attest that they have never seen freight prices so high. Delivery dates are long, prices are skyrocketing, and there are areas of product shortages. Without being too political, many of these situations were on the horizon. Artificially high tariffs, dumping duties, and punitive charges against some countries, notably China, all create unnatural trade restrictions. Today, the industry is feeling the adverse effects. Government interference in trade rarely accomplishes anything tangible.
Despite the pandemic last year, hotel renovation projects were still in full swing in the United States. We often see that consumer preferences lean toward modern design while keeping some of the old charm and popular locations over new architecture. The COVID-19 pandemic was a catalyst for the increase in renovation projects, as hotels took advantage of low occupancy rates resulting in less guest disturbance. Renovating during the pandemic also allowed hotels to welcome guests back in a refreshing and exciting way.
One of the characteristics that makes MGroup™ a successful company is our incredible employees in all areas of our business.
