Road transport below the cost price caused by the pandemic in the logistics sector is causing serious damage – warns the Association of Hungarian Logistics Service Centers (MLSZKSZ).

The practice, typically carried out by foreign operators – of transporting up to 35% below market prices – distorts the market, causes damage to principals, the state and, as a time bomb, also poses a serious risk of accidents. According to the association, the phenomenon, which already affects about 20% of transported shipments from Hungary, puts small players in the Hungarian road transport market in an impossible position and causes serious disruptions in the operation of medium and large companies as well.
