A difficult situation is developing with the sea transportation of fireworks from China through the port of Shanghai.
13,000 detected cases of COVID-19 infection paralyzed the work of the largest international city in China, from which fireworks are also sent.
Since March 28, the entire Eastern part of the city has been closed for the most severe lockdown.
This means that the activities of public transport, taxis, shops, subway are prohibited, and even the movement of cars on motorways, including with fireworks, is prohibited.
Residents of the city are prohibited from leaving their apartments.
You can only go outside to take another COVID-19 test.
Since April 1, the authorities have decided to close the western part of Shanghai.
Thus, all organizations are prohibited from visiting workplaces and are ordered to continue their activities remotely.
It is not clear how long the lockdown will last at the moment.
How does this affect fireworks?
The port of Shanghai is the largest port in China, from which fireworks are exported to all countries of the world.
In order to load a container with fireworks on the ship, labor is required: movers, drivers, customs inspectors and many others
The port is not equipped with 100% automatic equipment.
Since April 1, absolutely all residents of the city are required to stay at home.
This means that from April 1, 2022, no containers can be loaded onto ships for export.
This problem concerns not only the export of fireworks.
The import of goods through the port of Shanghai has also been stopped.
All fireworks that were supposed to leave China after the first day have been shifted until April 20.
April 20 is not the end date.
What does this mean for fireworks manufacturers?
If the container with fireworks was sent to the ship with the date of departure from Shanghai after April 1, a simple one is automatically formed until the 20th, and maybe more.
According to the contracts that are signed with Huayang, any downtime is paid for by the fireworks supplier.
The supplier of fireworks from has the right to resend this amount to the recipient of fireworks from China.
SuperFireworks Co., LTD hopes that on April 20, all restrictions will be lifted and shipped containers with fireworks will be shipped around the world.
