It is reported that about 500 thousand raw skins are shipped around the world every week, but a recent report shows that the original skin is out of port and the shipment has been postponed for up to 12 days.

Over the past few weeks, all major ports along the western coast of the United States have been losing work efficiency due to picket and strike.

In November 14th, the American raw materials Association said in a statement that the United States

Shang is aware that it is extremely difficult to ship raw skins from processing factories to overseas container ships.

The association noted that shipping companies and freight companies had to postpone or refuse export container shipments because of "blockage and uncertainty".

The current situation may destroy the customer relationship and the value of export built by exporters over the past few years.

The problem on the west coast of the United States is mainly due to the failure of negotiations between the port workers and employers on the terms of a new labor contract, which is estimated to cause nearly $2 billion damage to the US economy.
