The logistics risks for 2025 encompass tariffs and labor disputes.

In 2025, shippers face significant logistical challenges due to proposed higher tariffs, potential labor disruptions, and pricing pressures across various transport modes, including ocean, air, rail, and trucking. Experts suggest that companies should proactively monitor goods through affected ports, prepare for possible strikes, and consider stockpiling imports to mitigate tariff impacts. Additionally, rail capacity may be strained due to increased demand from Mexico, while air cargo could be affected by regulatory changes. Trucking rates are also expected to shift, complicating budgeting for shippers.
