Baby formula is getting harder to find
New York (CNN Business)Stores are having trouble quickly restocking baby formula onto shelves, as serious supply chain problems persist across the globe.
Drug store chain Walgreens (WBA), which operates more than 9,000 locations across the United States, said demand for infant formula is increasing nationwide at the same time that its suppliers are struggling to quickly meet orders.
"[This] may cause temporary and isolated shortages," said Emily Hartwig-Mekstan, spokesperson for Walgreens.
Walgreens said it is frequently posting product availability updates on its websites throughout the day.
"We are restocking stores as quickly as possible and continuing to work diligently with our supplier partners to best meet customer demands," said Hartwig-Mekstan, adding that the retailer is meeting demand.
