The Big Short(age)

How some bosses are finding creative but costly ways to get around the shortages problem. And why your morning coffee might soon start to get pricier.

From cola to beer, many items are still running short. It's caused by many issues including covid and a shortage of lorry drivers. Some businesses are investing in fleets of vans to move products around, bypassing HGV's. But is it sustainable? And will it cost us all more in the end?

And a combination of weather problems and covid restrictions in coffee producing parts of the world means the price of beans has jumped. What does it mean for your morning brew?
