Canadian Grocers Hit With Procurement Troubles As Effects of January 15th Vaccine Mandate Felt

The IHL Group estimated in 2015 up to $984 Billion in lost sales worldwide as procurement issues resulting in out-of-stocks are hitting grocers. This number has snowballed into the trillions as we reach the 2nd year of the pandemic. Now with vaccines widely available the Canadian government has enforced a January 15th hard stop to unvaccinated truckers from entering Canada. The timing is odd since much of Canada's produce comes from the United States border during these early months of the year. The government estimates it is turning away ~26,000 trucks.
