Manufacturer supply problems

Has anyone heard about problems in the supply chain of OCPDs by manufacturers? I heard today, in my local wholesalers, there are massive delays in getting containers into the country, such that some distributors/manufacturers are finding it difficult to fulfill existing orders and are not taking on new orders.

    Perhaps it might be a good idea to have products made in the UK?


    John, surely you haven't forgotten Mrs T! ?


    It's like my iPhone - designed in California, made in China. The business model was that we brainy Europeans and Americans designed things and then got them made cheaply elsewhere. The real problem is when the new manufacturers learn design. Huawei 'phone anybody? ?
