Following London International Shipping week, host Charlotte Goldstone shares her highlights of the events and useful takeaways and is joined by Alex Lennane and Gavin van Marle from The Loadstar team, who recap the week’s main supply chain headlines.

Our journalists explore all of these topics and more in this brief episode – perfect for busy people who need a quick reminder of what’s been going on before the week ahead.
