LOS ANGELES—The Los Angeles and Long Beach ports located in the San Pedro Bay are expected to remain backlogged until at least next summer due to a record number of container ships arriving, Long Beach Port Deputy Executive Director Noel Hacegaba told The Epoch Times.

Hacegaba said the extended port congestion may negatively impact the global supply chain.
