Byline: This year's Shipper Forum held in Amsterdam last week may have been knee deep in olive branches, but can the two sides really stop verbal fists from flying, wonders Janet Porter

WHEN the European Shippers' Council held its annual meeting in Rotterdam two years ago the atmosphere was glacial.

He accused ocean carriers of squeezing 'every penny they can' out of their customers without responding by raising service levels.
