Important Notice: Upcoming Increase in Sea Freight Rates to Jamaica in June

Dear Valued Customer,

We hope this message finds you well.

We would like to inform you of an important development that may affect your upcoming shipments. Due to recent reductions in U.S. import tariffs, global shipping demand has surged significantly. As a result, ocean freight rates are experiencing upward pressure across multiple trade lanes, including the China–Jamaica route.

Based on the current market trend, we anticipate that the sea freight cost to Jamaica will exceed USD 2,000 per container in June.

We strongly recommend that you plan your shipments in advance to avoid higher logistics costs. Our team is actively working with carriers to secure space and favorable rates for our clients, but early booking will be key during this period of volatility.

Should you have any upcoming orders or questions regarding your shipping schedule, please do not hesitate to contact us. We remain committed to supporting your business with efficient and transparent logistics solutions.

Thank you for your continued trust and partnership.

Best regards,

JAJA SUPPLY CHAIN
