Flexport has nearly doubled the size of our e-commerce fulfillment business in the first 45 days of the year. I’m spending the weekend working in our San Bernadino fulfillment center to help the team overwhelm any bottlenecks in inbounding all this new merchandise.

Flexport has an old saying, “create the problem” when people worry about issues that will only come about because we’re super successful. The most recent problem we created is our 1.2M square foot (23 acre) fulfillment center in San Bernadino is now full to overflowing.

1/ Last week, CEO Ryan Petersen joined Bloomberg TV to break down the effects of tariffs on global supply chains. How can businesses mitigate the impact of recent and upcoming changes?

To calculate #tariffs, the White House used a simple formula. In their calculations, they referenced an interesting paper by Cavallo et al. (2021). Let's look at some nuggets from that paper. ustr.gov/issue-areas/re…

On April 17th the U.S. Trade Representative's office is expected to impose fees of up to $1.5M per port call for ships made in China and for $500k to $1M if the ocean carrier owns a single ship made in China or even has one on order from a Chinese shipyard. 🧵 1/
