COVID-19 a.k.a. “Coronavirus” is an acute respiratory illness. The outbreak, which began in China, has now spread to other parts of the world including the United States. The virus is highly contagious and spreading rapidly. As a result, the World Health Organization has declared it a global pandemic. At The Shippers Group, our concern is for the health and well-being of our supply chain partners, service providers, associates and loved ones within our communities.
As a result of this current public health concern, we are taking precautionary steps to prioritize contingency planning and communication. With the safety of our associates and our customers' product a core value of The Shippers Group, we are presently focused on prevention and response.
