An executive with a Rail Company says during an interview on KRZK's "Ozarks Now" program that the Supply Chain Slowdown will definitely impact the upcoming Holiday Season.
John Fenton, CEO of Patriot Rain, says that nationwide, the supply chain slowdown has impacted products across the board. Fenton says that a combination of a shortage of employees along with demand for products has put a stress on the supply chain. U.S. Ports, especially in California, has dozens of ships backed up due to a delay in processing products from overseas.
Fenton says the best advice for consumers is that if you think you need something in the coming weeks and you see it in the store, get it. Fenton says that goes for everything from Christmas Gifts to Thanksgiving Turkeys.
