Might seem rather odd that this is posted under the Bizz section but its probably the right section...unfortunately.
Since its eruption and the grounding of aircraft the first obvious effects were felt quickly by those poor travelers trying to get home from their holiday or business trips.
Were already starting to see signs of food shortages on the supermarket shelves.....at the moment this appears to be only the more exotic fruits etc however there are people now beginning to stock pile essentials which may lead to shortages of these more basic items which undoubtedly will start more people stockpiling and thus fuel shortages.
Back to why this is in the Bizz section.
Its only been a week now and ,whilst the airlines are beginning to voice their opinions on getting back up there against the advice of the authorities there are little indications as to when things will get back to normal...once they do there will be a tremendous backlog of human and freight to be shifted before things can get back to some form of normality.
In just this week we are already experiencing shortage of ingredients supplies as the manufacturers simply cant get the stuff off the ground to us..this means we cant produce which means supplies to our customers are beginning to get low already....not helped by the season beginning to move to higher volume output demands.
Similar reports are coming in from other manufacturers.
So human traffic,food and now supplies into business is becoming an issue.
This can only get worse as more time with planes on the ground ticks by.
Have you found any shortages of food or professional supplies as yet ??
