In this episode of The Loadstar Podcast, host Mike King sits down with James Hookham, of the Global Shippers Forum, and Bjorn Vang Jensen, EVP ocean at Easy Speed International Logistics, to unpack the chaos and uncertainty defining global shipping in 2025.
From fluctuating spot rates to geopolitical shakeups, tariff wars to the failures of container lines, they explore why shippers are feeling dazed, confused, and apprehensive. Is the freight industry stuck in a ‘permacrisis’, or is there another way forward that delivers win-wins instead of zero-sum outcomes?
