We've doubled up our tomato planting because I just can't see how a Spanish/Italian lorry trundling across Europe will be allowed to get here easily!
We have loads of fresh Spanish produce arriving daily as work. They have said deliveries were being held up at the borders of Italy, but that seems to have eased a bit. We are getting the usual numbers of frozen pizza now. Dry pasta and flour is still hit and miss, but I think that is because the warehouses of Europe were emptied by the panic buying across several countries.
People are choosing to stay local and we are still taking a lot of money. It is just spread out over more normal sized shops. There 100 plus on line shops going out daily as well, but again, lots of smaller shops instead of the massive orders we were taking. At some points the shop looks pretty empty in sections as we are waiting for our delivery. Although massive amounts coming in every day, we are pretty much selling through the fruit and veg, yogurts, cheese, eggs and some other basics.
The supply chain is working, just under pressure still. It is fridge lorries and drivers that they say are the shortage, not the food
