In addition to this our Transport partners have been experiencing excessive delays (up to 4hrs) as a direct result of the industrial action at DPW over the past week. As a flow on effect, we have seen disruption to delivery services and the return of empty containers. In addition to the congestion being experienced as a result of infrastructure works, thus resulting in excessive waiting times at DPW.
Please note that Kerry Logistics will continue to monitor the situation and as always, we will notify customers of any impacted deliveries.
As always, Kerry Logistics is committed to informing you about the latest developments. In the meantime, if you have any questions or concerns, please contact your local Kerry Representative.
