Missouri: Grocers Work to Restock Stores as Shoppers Return After Winter Storm
What do you think?
(Missourinet) - As Missourians dig out from the winter storm, many are already heading back to the grocery store to restock on the basics.
The big question now is how quickly stores can refill those shelves after the rush.
Dan Shaul, Executive Director of the Missouri Grocers Association, says most grocery stores get delivery trucks several times a week.
“The road conditions certainly will be a challenge, but I can tell you that the grocery industry, the dairies, they are doing everything they can to make sure supplies get to the stores so the consumers can feel safe knowing that there's food there. So, they're working every minute they can to make sure the products are there.”
Shaul says Missourians should use what they already have at home first and make sure conditions are safe before heading back out to the grocery store.
