The Reunion branch of the Union of Transport and Logistics Companies of France (TLF Meeting) released on April 9 a very offensive press release towards the Grand Port Maritime, the public establishment managing Port Réunion. In a context of congestion at the container terminal and disruption of the ship schedule following the blockage of the Suez Canal, port professionals fear the consequences, for importers and consumers, cancellations of stopovers and the deposit of goods intended for Reunion Island in Mauritius, before costly rerouting. Port Réunion is currently handicapped by the unavailability of two of its four container cranes, who are promised reform and will not be replaced for a year.
