What is a GRI (General Rate Increase) in shipping? A General Rate Increase in shipping is applied by the carriers depending upon demand. It is a general rate that is applied across base rates on specific lines. These sea freight rate adjustments are made during a specific time frame as a surcharge. Global Ship Routes works in close partnership with our clients and carriers to communicate when a GRI is expected.
