Nationwide supply shortages hit close to home

Do you want to change the color of your house or eat chicken? Unfortunately, shortages have been making paint and poultry hard to find. These shortages could end up affecting you for months to years.

Shortages across several markets, such as paint and poultry, are becoming more scarce. Supply Chain Management Professor of Practice Hitendra Chaturvedi explains why, and Supply Chain Management Professor Dale Rogers says shortages could affect the nation for months to years.

In this story aired June 3, 2021, on News 4 Tucson:

We messed up when we were planning to forecast the impact of coronavirus on our industries. It is about people not there to work and that's causing chicken shortages.
It's going to be at least two years, and I would say likely more [until chip supply goes back to normal].
