The pandemic has disrupted the global supply chain. Manufacturing, transportation and logistics have been affected by delays, labor shortages and rising prices. And that could impact everything from the price you’re paying for groceries to whether you can get a turkey for Thanksgiving.
At 9 a.m. on Monday, MPR News host Angela Davis breaks down exactly what is going on with the supply chain and how it affects us.
And we want to hear from you: What can’t you get because of supply chain issues? Is there something you’ve been told will take months to get? Or have the rising prices caused by the supply chain drama made some things unaffordable? Call us at 651-227-6000 or 800-242-2828 during the 9 a.m. hour. Or tweet @AngelaDavisMPR.
