The company operates more than 2,800 locations in 35 states, including such brands as Rouse, King supers and Dillons. But in recent weeks, Kruger’s shoppers have complained about massive shortages at its stores, an unprecedented price increase affecting a number of essential products. So today, we decided to investigate what items are missing from supermarket shelves and how much the price chain is rising in 2023.

🏦 Supply chain problems continue to wreak havoc on many industries, even nearly three years into the pandemic and the disruptions caused by it.
