Nestle hit by supply chain crisis ahead of Christmas

The Independent says Nestle has become the latest victim of the supply chain crisis, with the company saying it is “working hard” to ensure Quality Street boxes will be available this Christmas.

The maker of Lion bars and Kit Kats has been hit by the ongoing chronic HGV driver shortage which has led to empty shelves in supermarkets and fuel shortages at forecourts.

Mark Schneider, the chief executive of Nestle, said the company is working hard to guarantee that its most popular Christmas treats would be available for Britons this winter.
