DHL Warns of Freight Delays as Italian Haulage Strike Threatens National Supply Chains
Logistics giant DHL is warning customers of potential delays for collections and deliveries across Italy. The alert comes as Italian road haulage associations prepare for a nationwide, indefinite strike to protest soaring fuel costs. The strike threatens to disrupt ground operations and significantly impact freight flows throughout the country. This action by truckers could create major bottlenecks for supply chains that rely on road transport for first and last-mile delivery, including air cargo. The associations claim government support has been insufficient to offset the dramatic rise in fuel prices.
