Kevin Clarke, Managing Director of MSC Mediterranean Shipping Company in Australia, writes:
The year we are about to archive will be seared into our memories as the year that called into question the way we live, work and do business. In the space of a few short months, the world was changed forever, as the pandemic affected all populations, societies, and economies across the globe.
The global health crisis has reshaped existing production and trade patterns and forced companies and industries to rethink their supply chain models.
In this new era, one thing was brought to the fore: we live in a globalised world that relies upon complex integrated supply chains and systems, with strong mutual dependencies across multiple countries.
As a truly global shipping line and one of the key links in global supply chains, Mediterranean Shipping Company reacted promptly to the immediate challenges the pandemic posed, showing flexibility, business continuity, high levels of customer service and financial strength, despite the difficult operating conditions.
