Maersk finalizes agreement for 6-day Suez Canal blockage

Maersk finalizes agreement for 6-day Suez Canal blockage

Posted on December 11, 2023   |  

On March 23, 2021, a blockage occurred, and Evergreen was the company responsible for chartering the containership.

The closure of the Suez Canal resulted in delays and supply chain concerns for various global firms.

In February 2023, Maersk initiated a lawsuit, seeking compensation of over $40 million for the delays caused by the event.

The case reached an out-of-court settlement on November 30, 2023, and Maersk opted not to disclose the terms of the settlement or reveal the names of the companies or individuals it had sued.
