As summer slowly fades away, school is starting again. The mornings bring packed lunches and traffic jams… but there’s still time for one last trip to the beach, one more fried dough at the lakeside, or the very last ice cream of the season.

Christmas? Cold weather? Snowfall? Or Holiday gift shopping? Sounds surreal right now, doesn’t it?

Yet, some people already know exactly what they’ll surprise their family and friends with this year. Retailers have long placed their orders for toys, decorations, plush figures, fairy lights, and all the other items that will soon be filling store shelves and online catalogs.

This is the time of year when retailers and freight forwarders work hand in hand to make sure cost-effective, sea-freighted Christmas goods are on their way. Because if you miss the boat now… you might miss out entirely.

Over the past five years, each year has brought a serious global challenge that has shaken trade to its core:
– First, the global pandemic.
– Then, the war in our neighboring region, which disrupted the main rail connections between China and Europe.
– And most recently, security risks in the Red Sea, forcing route changes that have extended sea freight transit times to 55–65 days.

Those who don’t ship their containers from the Far East now may find that toys, decorations, plush figures, and fairy lights simply won’t make it in time this year.

The past years have tested us at ONE LOG Hungary Ltd. as well. Time and again, we’ve had to be creative and quick to ensure shipments reached their destinations safely and on time – even under seemingly impossible circumstances.

Air, road, rail, sea, or combined transport? Customs clearance? Cargo insurance?
We’ve always made it happen. We’ve always had the solution.

And now, as we enter the busiest time of the year, we can confidently say:
WE CAN DO IT – WE HAVE THE SOLUTION!
