Yahoo Finance Tell us: what are you finding hard to buy in your country?
We’d like your help to find out what items are in short supply where you live.
With the easing of the Covid-19 pandemic, a sudden surge in demand for energy, labour and transport has put global supply chains under huge strain. Logjams of container ships are part of the problem but countries across the world are experiencing problems with labour shortages.
In the UK, concerns about the availability of goods have prompt early buying for some Christmas food items. Companies across the US are predicting shortages and price rises for everything from artificial Christmas trees and sports goods to Thanksgiving turkeys. in Russia, regional cities, such as Krasnoyarsk, are experiencing a shortage of doshirak, the popular dried noodles.
What are you finding difficult to get hold of where you live? Maybe it is your favourite food, toys or items for DIY. Let us know.
