Greggs’ shelves start to empty as supply chain crisis grows

Greggs has been hit by supply chain problems as some chicken items are missing from its shops.

The announcement comes on the heels of McDonald’s running out of milkshakes.

Nando’s is also suffering from the delivery crisis – its restaurants have no Peri-Peri chicken.

A Greggs spokesperson said:

“There are no current supply issues with our chicken bakes and our customers can continue to enjoy these as they usually would.

“Unfortunately, like others, we’re seeing temporary interruptions in supply for some ingredients which occasionally results in shops not being able to maintain full availability on all lines.

“However, we have a wide range of choices in our menu for customers happy to buy an alternative.”

An estimated shortage of 100,000 lorry drivers and the “pingdemic” – keeping people at home in isolation – are among factors causing the supply problems.
