    Maersk has reported disruptions to its ocean and inland logistics operations in Colombia following an earthquake that affected several parts of the country. The carrier said its teams are assessing the impact on operations and supply chains.

    Maersk is working with local teams, terminal operators, government authorities and logistics partners to evaluate conditions and minimise the impact on customers. The company has prioritised the safety of its employees, their families and affected communities while responding to the disruption.

    The earthquake-related impact could affect cargo movements across both port and inland logistics networks, potentially causing delays to vessel operations, terminal handling and inland transportation. Maersk is continuing to monitor the situation and assess operational conditions as more information becomes available.

    Customers with shipments moving through affected locations are being advised to remain in contact with Maersk representatives for updates on cargo status, schedules and any operational changes.

    The latest disruption highlights the vulnerability of regional supply chains to natural disasters and comes as carriers continue to manage a range of operational risks across global shipping networks.
