Carrefour Seville without milk or bread due to logistics strike

The transport strike in Seville has left Carrefour shelves empty of basic products. Milk, bread, and eggs are the hardest to find, forcing consumers to seek alternatives in other stores or change their shopping habits. Distribution is paralyzed, and restocking is not arriving.

The just-in-time logistics system fails in distribution 🚚

The just-in-time distribution model, which optimizes storage by reducing inventories, shows its Achilles' heel when a logistics stoppage interrupts the supply chain. Carrefour's distribution centers do not have reserve stock for more than two days. Dependence on constant truck flows turns a strike into an almost immediate shortage, with no margin to react.

The egg or the milk: existential dilemma at the supermarket 🥚🥛

Now Sevillians have to choose between egg protein or milk calcium, as if they were in a survival contest. The shelves look like a post-apocalyptic landscape, only instead of zombies, there are ladies with empty carts asking if there is any bread left. At least the diet becomes more creative and lighter, which is something.
