Factbox-Merchants With Largest Shipments to US East Coast Ports By Reuters

NEW YORK (Reuters) – The biggest pork strike in nearly fifty years entered a third day at ports on the U.S. East Coast, threatening shortages of goods ranging from bananas to auto parts and causing a stock of ships anchored outside major ports.

Major retailers are implementing backup shipping plans to ensure merchandise arrives in time for the peak holiday season.

Here are some of the top retailers that were the biggest users of Eastern and Gulf Coast ports for importing products between January and August of this year, according to bill of lading data from Import Yeti, a data firm. Retailers whose products are bulky, such as furniture, typically use multiple shipping containers.
