The Hull Trains drivers' union (Aslef) has announced a 56-day strike from March 31 to May 24! If the strike proceeds as planned, it will impact the UK East Coast Main Line railway transport, particularly affecting train services between London and cities in the northeast of England. This will pose significant challenges for UK logistics, FBA warehouse deliveries, and cross-border e-commerce sellers!

⚠️ Logistics Disruptions:

🚆 Rail transport suspension leading to delivery delays
🚛 Increased demand for road and air transport, driving up logistics costs
📦 FBA warehouse replenishment and overseas warehouse restocking may be delayed

✅ How Can Cross-Border Sellers Respond?

🔹 Stock up in advance to minimize warehouse shortages
🔹 Optimize logistics solutions by considering sea freight + truck delivery, air freight, etc.
🔹 Inform buyers promptly to reduce complaints and refund rates
🔹 Monitor strike updates and adjust shipping strategies flexibly

🚨 The 8-week strike may put additional pressure on UK logistics, so cross-border sellers should plan ahead! 📦⚠️
