Safround Group’s Week 13 Route Trend in 2025

2025.03.21

Southeast Asia, Australia and New Zealand
PAT direct ship from Bangkok, Thailand, the earliest KMTC route is April 7, whether Haifeng will go direct is yet to be determined, and the price of PAT direct will continue to increase! There are many choices for Laem Chaban, and the price increase is very small for the time being~
Ho Chi Minh, Vietnam, has slightly increased in early April. The mainstream shipowner COSCO has reached 750 or above. Haiphong will drop slightly. The Toei/Panzhou/Dongjin route has lowered the freight rate of Haiphong (it has formed a weekly service on Friday). The cargo volume of Indonesia recovered at the end of March and began to increase prices
The Singapore-Malaysia route had no available space at the end of March, and there is still hope for scattered cargo. Large tickets will be scheduled until April [the main reason is that KCM KCM2   KCM4 routes are seriously overscheduled]; Bangladesh Chittagong MCC resumed receiving Bangladesh small cabinets on April 1, and continued to increase prices. The direct price of Haifeng has been raised. It is recommended to use MSC for large tickets and heavy cargo, and book in advance;
Australia-New Zealand route, the YML group stopped at the end of March, resulting in tight shipping capacity. The MSK space at the end of the month is full, and the earliest space to be booked is in early April. Freight rates are expected to rise slightly; Australia and New Zealand remain unchanged; Taiwan has begun to reduce prices, OOCL 3.26 and YML 3.25 Booking is still available

Europe, Mediterranean, North Africa
China Shipping: Mediterranean prices have been falling continuously since March, and there is a possibility of an increase in early April.
Mediterranean-At the end of the month, MSC's Mediterranean and North Africa small cabinets are exempt from overweight charges. Compared with ONE, ZIM freight rates have certain advantages. If there is cargo, the price can be confirmed separately, and the price of large bills can be applied separately.
Secondly, ONE's freight rates at the beginning of the month are basically the same as the end of the month. Small cabinets and light cargo are given priority. The price for light cargo is also the lowest, and large cabinets have an advantage. Please add more cargoes to the open space.
ZIM can still load cargoes at the end of the month, and large bills of cargo can apply for large freight rates. There are constant surprises, so everyone can actively load cargoes. Mediterranean-For small cabinets, ONE is still as cheap as Mediterranean, but due to weight restrictions, light cargo is still given priority, and the super high price is still ONE.
Secondly, ESL 3.30 Mediterranean Turkey is in need of cargo, and there are constant surprises. Small cabinets are not limited in weight. For small heavy cabinets, everyone can consider ESL at the end of the month, and the price is negotiable.
ZIM3.27 Mediterranean direct ship calls at Valencia/Haifa/Ashdod/Mersin/Istanbul/Derince. Large-volume cargo can apply separately, subject to approval.
EMC At the end of the month, the port of Pirevalen in Northeast Africa is seriously congested, and the customer accepts the booking; next week's MD2 is changed to 3.29 OOCL ITALY 143W, and the ship is refitted in Hong Kong; booking still has the risk of dumping goods; HKH/NCI before the end of the month can no longer be released.
Other shipowners can still order goods at the end of March, but the space is tight; the prices at the beginning of the month are constantly updated, and it is expected that the increase will not be obvious. If there is demand, it is still necessary to occupy the space as soon as possible.
Advantageous shipowners at the end of the month: ONE, ZIM If you don't consider the timeliness, you can choose MSC. If you require direct and fast delivery of goods in Egypt, you can consider ZIM, VOLTA and Turkey shipping;

Middle East India Pakistan Red Sea
East route: There are empty flights in the Middle East, and the space is very tight. It will be increased later, and heavy cargo will be arranged separately.
Indian route: India's overall warehouse is tight, and the price is rising. Please inquire for large-volume cargo separately and arrange it as soon as possible.
Red Sea route: There are currently CMA overtime ships, and there will be a small increase. Load more cargo.

Latin America, non-Japan and South Korea
Japan route The overall price is falling, and the price will continue to fall at the end of the month
Shipowner recommendation Zhongtong/Shangang/Antong/Haifeng/Sinotrans/Jinjiang
South Korea route Incheon's voyages in the second half of the month are all rising in price. Due to the recent weather conditions at sea, Incheon direct ships have always had extra shifts. Busan currently has relatively cheap prices for ONE and MCC.
Shipowner recommendation: Shangang/Douyu/Datong/Panyang East Africa: The price of direct ship from Dar es Salaam will be increased on March 26, and the current price of transshipment is also on the rise. The price of large-volume cargo needs to be applied separately. Shipowner recommendation: ASCL/ESL/IAL/KMTC/MSC. South Africa: Most shipowners are still increasing prices at the end of the month, and the space is tight. Shipowner recommendation: MSC/ZIM/ONE/PIL West Africa: The overall price of ships at the end of the month will continue to follow the trend. Large-volume cargo orders need to be applied. Shipowner recommendation: ZIM/MSC/ONE. West South America: The second half of the month's ships are currently following the trend. The price will be increased in early April, and the increase is expected to be 500-1000. The actual goods will be confirmed separately! Shipowner recommendation: MSC/WHL/CMA/YML/ZIM. East South America: The price of ships will slightly decrease at the end of the month, and it is expected to increase at the beginning of next month. The situation of CMA dumping goods in East South America has improved. If you have box requirements, please see CMA COSCO! Caribbean: The trend of the month end ships is basically the same, and it is expected to increase at the beginning of next month. The trend of Caribbean is basically synchronized with that of South America and West. MSC/CMA/ZIM are recommended. The PCS surcharge of MSC/ZIM is charged normally.
