Subject:                                     Emergency Ocean Bunker Fuel Surcharge

 

Dear Valued Unique Customer,

Due to global fuel price increases and drastic increase of bunker cost (i.e. ocean fuel), many of the ocean carrier have announced and filed in their tariff an emergency fuel surcharge of one type or another (i.e. EFC, EFS, EBS, EBR, EFR, etc…) to recover the increased cost of ocean bunker fuel.  This effective date could be implemented on cargo departing as early as December 20th, 2007.  The targeted amount of the surcharge ranges from $200-300 per 40GP (other sizes per formula).  Since not all carriers have announced the same amount and/or effective date, Unique Logistics International is working with all contract carriers to minimize and/or mitigate the surcharge impact to our customers.  At the same time, we will review alternative options which do not jeopardize routings and/or service to our clients.

 

Thank you for your support of Unique Logistics International.  We appreciate and value your business!

 

 

Best Regards

David Hickmott - Executive Vice President
