Coronavirus (COVID-19) Alert

Logistics solutions... We're here to help!

Toronto, March 19, 2020

As the COVID-19 outbreak continues to evolve, we want you to know Universal Logistics is doing everything we can to support our clients through this difficult time.

Given this unprecedented situation, creative logistics solutions are needed to navigate the new obstacles you are facing.

Here are some examples of how we can help:

• Unexpected warehouse or business closures... Deliver the freight to Universal's warehouse facility for short-term storage until your shipment can be accepted.
• Reduced airfreight capacity and soaring air rates... Switch to an LCL ocean freight solution by shipping your UK to Canada/USA freight in our weekly Toronto/NYC ocean consolidations as a viable, cost-effective option.
• Limited availability of FCL containers on the Hong Kong/China to Canada trade lane... Increase your LCL shipping in our weekly Toronto ocean consolidation service.

As previously advised in our client Email Alert! of March 12th, Universal's priority is the safety of our employees and ensuring that the resources and services we provide our clients are uninterrupted.

We know you have a lot of questions – please remember we're here to help.  Contact us with any inquires and we'll assist you in any way we can.

For more information, please call Mark Glionna, Vice President – Client Relations & Business Development at (905) 882-4880, ext. 1212.
