Lidl says stock low due to ‘disruptions’ in supply chain as national food shortages ensue
Many UK supermarkets have been struggling with food shortages in recent weeks, leaving their shelves bare. This is due to a number of reasons, including a lack of lorry drivers.
Another person said: “My Lidl experiences are: there are definitely shortages. The staff also say that deliveries are struggling.”
One customer posted photos of gaps in shelves at their local Lidl store, accompanied by the caption: “Food shortages on its way, wait for it…Lidl UK.”
One person wrote: “Cornwall here, Lidl and Waitrose there are shortages.”
Another customer who couldn’t find what they were looking for at their local Lidl added: “You just take these items for granted when they are on the shelves. It’s only when you look for a tin of beans or whatever and realise they are out of stock that you notice and think about going elsewhere.”
