This week on the show we break it down, and talk to our business owners about Disruptions in the Supply Chain caused by Covid. The Economy, when it’s humming along nicely, is a complex and delicate ecosystem that we take for granted most of the time. It is a system that works based on Buyer’s fluctuating needs, wants and demands — Needs, wants, and demands that got thrown into a tailspin in 2020. And not only was the tailspin because the American consumer didn’t spend nearly as much as anticipated on suits for the office and ladies dress flats to complete that business professional looks and their dollars shift to things like ring lighting and new additions to the house or remodeling that now essential “home office”, but it was an even bigger dilemma, because due to Covid international trade was halted, shipping yards were being temporarily closed, the price of gasoline crashed then skyrocketed, the demand for long-haul truckers ballooned, and we’re not even going to get into the toilet paper thing… to say it’s been difficult to navigate is an understatement. Tracking the effects of a disruption in the supply chain can be dizzying and it can hit you where you least expect it!
