A knot in the supply chain caused some shelves to go bare in the produce sections of Yellowknife grocers this week.

Yellowknifers posted evidence of the shortage of greenery on social media Wednesday, Dec. 5.

SA国际影视传媒淭here was a pile-up on the highways down south that delayed our truck about 20 hours,SA国际影视传媒� said Jeff Kincaid, business development manager at the Yellowknife Direct Charge Co-op. SA国际影视传媒淥nce he got out of the traffic jam, he couldnSA国际影视传媒檛 make it up here in the same day with his log books (because he was limited in how many hours he can drive in a day).SA国际影视传媒�

Kincaid said the truck was stuck behind a collision near Fox Creek, near Edmonton, Alta.

One truck arrived overnight and two others were expected Wednesday evening.

SA国际影视传媒淗is truck is frozen now and theySA国际影视传媒檝e been trying to get that thawed out so that he can open the doors and we can unload our truck,SA国际影视传媒� said Kincaid.

He said the store also had other issues regarding the transportation of livestock for harvest connected to the extended cold snap.

SA国际影视传媒淭hatSA国际影视传媒檚 why we had no chickens,SA国际影视传媒� said Kincaid.

Glen Meek likewise said a hiccup in the supply chain led to the produce shortage at GlenSA国际影视传媒檚 Independent Grocer downtown, but wouldnSA国际影视传媒檛 say whether the collision near Fox Creek played a factor.

SA国际影视传媒淭he biggest issue that weSA国际影视传媒檝e been facing is transportation and supply,SA国际影视传媒� said Meek.

Meek was unable to disclose if shortages in the Independent were also a result of the Fox Creek incident. As well, there was no word on if supply issues were in the process/currently being resolved.
