Food Logistics: Productivity Metrics at Port of Long Beach Terminals Remain Steady Despite COVID-19
EKA’s Alex Cherin was quoted in a recent article at Food Logistics regarding Port of Long Beach activity during the COVID-19 shutdowns:
As far as the sector as a whole, State agencies and municipalities alike have recognized the essential nature of the maritime sector and transportation workers have been specifically deemed “essential” in recent guidance provided by the federal Department of Homeland Security, the State of California and both the Cities of Los Angeles and Long Beach. “The fact that some of these productivity measures seem to have weathered the storm and that maritime workers are being recognized as an essential part of the economy during these times is a bright spot for sure,” said Alex Cherin, Executive Director of the California Trucking Association’s Intermodal Conference.
