As we approach the 2026 FIFA World Cup, please be aware of potential short-term delivery and logistics impacts across host cities in the U.S., Canada, and Mexico.
Given the scale of the event and the expected influx of millions of visitors, cities will implement traffic management measures and limited delivery windows, particularly on match days.
WHAT TO EXPECT

- Increased congestion and extended transit times
- Temporary delivery restrictions in high-traffic areas
- Tighter scheduling windows for shipments
AFFECTED MARKETS

WHAT THIS MEANS
