    Dude you are full of crap. I’m headed to New York now with produce. Virus be ######! There is no food shortage. People are panic buying more than they need faster than the shelves can be restocked. Please just don’t say anything and stay off this forum.

    It’s expensive to carry inventory. Walmart and the rest of the retailer’s would need to double the size of their DC’s.

    Sounds like bunch of BS. With current situation when people pretty much cleaning retail stores to the ground, USA simply don't have enough refers to put them on OOS for 6weeks without movement in a middle of nowhere

    Are you a little slow sometimes? I was referring to the stores need the food put inside them from the truckers. Like we need to bring the food but there is lots of out there yes to the stores. That’s what I meant by shortage. I meant people who drive reefers, their jobs are pretty secure for the moment.

    Food service, perhaps. Freight on the other hand is still hopping, at least in my world.

    No but you are a little unclear sometimes. Your message looked pretty doom and gloom to me and others who read it. Craft your words more carefully.
