It happens.

This is something that goes on all the time it’s part of the contract type of business that they are for filling it’s not unusual. I believe it’s part of GXO now and this will continue to happen over time in that type of business. Contracts run out sometimes they are renewed sometimes they’re not .

FYI. The customer pays the rent for the facility when they agree to terms. That’s what contract logistics means.
