Industry Insights
November 2025
By PGL
November Was a Month of Market Movement at PGL
- Peak Season Outlook: Peak season is officially here, and 2025 demand is on track to generate over $900B in global logistics activity. PGL is helping customers capture opportunity, not just manage disruption.
- Ocean Freight: A potential reopening of the Red Sea corridor could shorten Asia–Europe transit times by up to 14 days. With spot rates already spiking on Asia–U.S. lanes, volatility is back in play.
- Air Freight: The Baltic Air Freight Index jumped 7.6% in November. Temperature-controlled freight climbed 12% YoY, intensifying competition for capacity.
- Ground Freight: Extended tariff relief may reduce friction across U.S.–China trade lanes, but peak season pressure and vessel disruption are already pushing trucking demand higher.
- The PGL Advantage: We forecast markets in real time, secure capacity early, and keep freight moving through cross-modal strategies and global carrier relationships.
As always, PGL is here for you — 24/7/365.
