French Farmer Protests

Demonstrations in France by farmers over demands for better prices for their produce and more government support are continuing to disrupt vehicles throughout France.

French law enforcement has warned that close to 1,000 farmers and 500 tractors are blocking roads across France, and their protests could intensify this week.

These protests are impacting hauliers access to Europe via France. This could result in extended Transit Times for orders and delays with loading on International Vehicles.

Neptune will continue working closely with our hauliers to deliver your consignments at the earliest opportunity and your operational handler will keep you updated should there be delays to scheduled deliveries
