These conditions are impacting departments 06, 07, 42, 43, and 69, where road closures (both highways and secondary roads) have made transportation difficult.

Furthermore, the deliveries and collections in these areas may be delayed or, in some cases, may be temporarily impossible.

Should you require any further information, please do not hesitate to contact us.

Dear Customer,

Please be advised that the Amazon sites LBA4 and EMA4 have reached full capacity and are currently unable to accept any further bookings.

Unfortunately, if bookings are refused, the pallets will need to be returned to you. We kindly ask that you take this into consideration when sending shipments to these sites.

Should you require any further information, please do not hesitate to contact us.

Dear Customer

 

Until further notice, all FedEx international and domestic shipments will require additional inspection before entering the FedEx network. 

 

As part of these efforts, we are introducing the following operational changes: 

 

All shipments tendered to FedEx: 

 

All shipments from Europe to the USA, Canada, and Australia or transiting the USA and Latin America - delivered to FedEx locations or picked up by FedEx employees will undergo additional screening by dedicated FedEx staff before entering the network. As a result of this screening, your shipments may experience delays of +1 to 2 days compared to quoted transit times. 

 

Our top priority remains the safety and well-being of everyone involved in our operations. 

 

Thank you for your understanding in helping us maintain a safe and secure network.

 

Please be advised of the below regarding strikes in Spain and Italy

SPAIN:

The 2 biggest Spanish trade unions, CCOO and UGT, have announced a seven-day strike action until Christmas for all professional drivers in the country. The goal is to pressure the government to include drivers among the beneficiaries of early retirement.

Unions are calling all workers in the road transport sector to strike, including transport workers who move goods, long-distance bus drivers, and urban and sanitary public transport workers.

The unions estimate that half a million people have been called to strike. This concerns only employees and not self-employed drivers.

The published dates of the strikes for 2024 are:

• Monday - 28th of October 2024
• Monday - 11th of November 2024
• Thursday - 28th of November 2024
• Friday - 29th of November 2024
• Thursday - 05th of December 2024
• Monday - 09th of December 2024
• Monday - 23th of December 2024

The seven days of strike action coincide with key commercial dates such as Black Friday, as well as the 5th, 9th, and 23rd of December, just before Christmas.

Additionally, the unions threaten to make the strikes indefinite from then on, coinciding with the Christmas period, if no agreement is reached with the government and employers.

Right now, it is very difficult to know how this strike will affect transport in Spain, but we must be prepared for a strong negative impact on distribution, national and domestic transport, and deliveries during the strike days and the following days.

Please inform your staff and customers accordingly.

We will let you know the outcome of the first day of the strike and its follow-up.

ITALY (System plus only):

A General Strike has been called by the SI COBAS Union in Italy for Friday the 18th of October.

Please consider that daily business related to collections and deliveries could be impacted.

Do not hesitate to come back to us for any additional information.
