Amidst mass flooding and highway closures in Southern and Interior B.C., local residents are trying to get their hands on as many groceries they can, out of fear that shortages will come. Much of the produce in 亚洲天堂 Lake is imported from Edmonton and Vancouver, which has scared people into thinking problems could arise with getting trucks to the area due to the floods.
According to a worker at Save On Foods in 亚洲天堂 Lake, a truck is expected to arrive tomorrow re-stocking groceries in the store, and customers shouldn鈥檛 worry about the possibility of the store running out of food.
In Houston, Buy-Low foods says they too won鈥檛 have any issues providing food for customers. 鈥淏uy-Low Foods is well supported by its wholesale distribution partners and while we may experience some short delays, we are not expecting any significant disruption to supply of products our customers count on,鈥 said a representative for the company.
Lakes District 亚洲天堂 also spoke to a representative from the Wholesale Club in 亚洲天堂 Lake, who said that staff is working hard to prevent any issues. 鈥淲e can still get our regular groceries. A lot of our frozen food, as well as fresh produce comes from Vancouver, so it鈥檚 hard to tell if there we鈥檒l be any delays getting stock up here. We鈥檙e working as hard as we can to make sure that doesn鈥檛 happen, but it鈥檚 hard to tell at the moment.鈥

The representative went on to say that it鈥檚 important not to panic and over-stock in preparation for the worst, as doing so will only exacerbate the issue.
