As Golden Week approaches in China, businesses worldwide are preparing for the impact this holiday will have on global supply chains. Golden Week, which begins on October 1st and ends on October 7th, is the celebration of China’s National Day. During this period, most Chinese businesses, factories, and logistics services will either slow down or come to a close as millions of workers take time off to travel and celebrate with family.
To navigate the challenges during Golden Week, Radius International encourages clients to reach out to suppliers and vendors to get shipments out beforehand. Ensuring orders are placed well in advance, stocking up on essential inventory, and maintaining close communication with suppliers are crucial steps to take to navigate potential delays and disruptions. It is also important to emphasize the effects to come after the holiday is over, there will likely be delays and blank sailings as a result of Golden Week. As the holiday approaches, Radius International remains committed to supporting its clients and partners through any challenges.
