We would have one truck deliver to two or three stores normally but with this buying some stores need two truck deliveries a piece and even that's not enough .All so most grocery companies have outsource their dry goods to a third party supplier (C&S) they have warehouse's all over the country but their biggest is in PA off of rt 81 . It's fully automated and handles their Toilet Paper type goods and such.Being that it is an automated system it can only go so fast and it works for dozens of different companies all going through the same shit right now.

They really need to start rationing everything. Saw a woman the other day and her cart was over half full of just meat. Totally ridiculous. One of my coworkers bought 96 rolls of toilet paper. People are losing their shit.
