[Freight rates surge by nearly 14% and the United States may usher in the “most expensive shopping season”] On October 27, it was reported that due to the impact of geopolitical conflicts and rising international oil prices, the U.S. retail and logistics industry may usher in the most expensive year-end shopping season in history in the fourth quarter of this year. With the current average price of diesel soaring nearly 74% year-on-year, U.S. parcel freight rates will rise significantly in the fourth quarter. Among them, ordinary parcel freight rates are expected to increase by 5.8% year-on-year, and expedited express mail freight rates will soar by 13.8%, which will have a significant impact on the upcoming holiday consumer market.
