Breaking Alert
6/27/2017
Dear
Valued Customer,
The
below advisory was received from Matson Navigation Company (Matson) this
morning. If there turns out to be a work stoppage, flow of product and goods to
the Islands will slow down due to a lack of capacity. We certainly do not
foresee that happening, based on previous experiences in prior years, but
wanted you to be aware.
From
Matson:
Further to our advisory of June 19,
Matson is currently negotiating new labor contracts with unions representing
unlicensed crew on our ships serving Hawaii and Guam in Matson domestic
trades. The current contracts with these groups expire June
30.
Negotiations are ongoing and, as always, Matson’s objective is to reach timely,
fair, and equitable agreements. Matson remains cautiously optimistic
about reaching such an agreement before the contract expiration.
We at DHX-
Dependable Hawaiian Express will be monitoring the situation and will endeavor
to keep you informed.
