Current developments in supply chains surrounding the Middle East conflict
Dear Sir or Madam,
the current situation in Iran and the overall situation in the Middle East are leading to increased uncertainties in procurement and logistics markets worldwide. In this regard, we would like to inform you at an early stage and in a transparent manner.
We are pleased that we are currently still able to supply you reliably. Nevertheless, we are noticing changes in various areas. In particular, transport, energy, and raw material costs have increased significantly within a short period of time. In addition, international supply chains are increasingly under pressure. Even though supply is currently secured, there is reason for concern due to the geopolitical developments that bottlenecks and cost increases may occur in the future.
As your business partner, we are closely monitoring the situation and continuously assessing possible impacts on availability, procurement, and logistics. Our goal is to respond to changes at an early stage in order to continue ensuring the supply of our customers.
Despite our best efforts, we will no longer be able to fully absorb the rapid rise in costs ourselves. As a result, exceptional price adjustments are likely to be unavoidable. We will, of course, keep you informed of any such changes in a timely and transparent manner. We thank you for your trust and for working with us as partners. Please do not hesitate to contact us if you have any questions.
