I work in logistics for a FMCG company and sometimes our main producer goes down and we run out of certain types of stock. We send as much out as we can and cancel the rest.
If they really want the stock the customers can rebook an order for tomorrow because they aren't getting it today. And we just start adding extra stock to each delivery.
It's the best of a bad situation.
We don't have the money to have extra trucks and very perishable stock laying about and I know the airlines don't pay 300 grand a month to lease a 737 just to have it sat about doing nothing. There's very little slack.
