Part of my job is logistics.

If you live in a “big dollar” area (wealthy) you are getting the goods first.

That is ending.

One of the busiest ports in China is shut down. Stuff from Europe is slowing way down too. We import most of our prepackaged food (notice the buffalo chicken shortage?) and that is breaking down.

It isn’t just the US or North America. Most of the world is now feeling the pain from laying off everyone for a year.

The good thing? I expect a lot of domestic manufacturing in the next ten years. The bad thing? No one wants to work anymore.

So if everything is fine where you live, stock up. It won’t be.

Interesting. I live in Florida and the last 10 days I’ve noticed a lot of empty shelves and/or low stock items at Publix.

Think of doing a bi-weekly post on what shortages may be developing.
