# Disruptions and price rises persist in the container freight supply chain, report finds | ACCC

> The ACCC's 2023-24 container stevedoring monitoring report finds that disruptions and higher costs persist in the container freight supply chain. Some importers paid four to 11 times as much for ocean freight as a year earlier. The report cites Panama Canal restrictions, Red Sea attacks, and industrial action at DP World terminals.

## Why it matters

The report concerns containerised cargo and stevedoring charges rather than bulk feed commodities, so its direct effect on feed prices is limited.
