In this episode of The Freight Buyers' Club, host Mike King speaks with Dr. Noel Hacegaba, Chief Operating Officer at the Port of Long Beach, about a potential game-changer in global trade: a 90-day pause in US-China tariffs.
With blank sailings still biting and cargo volumes recently in freefall, Dr. Hacegaba explains why optimism is returning — and how the port is preparing for a possible early peak season driven by shippers scrambling to front-load goods.
Expect insight on:
- The impact of China accounting for 60% of Long Beach’s volumes
- How close the port came to a 30% YOY drop
- The trickle-down effect on dock workers, truckers, and the local economy
- Whether the supply chain is finally ready for a no-drama surge
A sharp, inside look at what the US-China détente could mean for global logistics.
