A sign on a Hardee’s drive-thru speaker alerts customers that some items are not available due to national supply chain delays, Dec. 29, 2021, in Theodore, Alabama. U.S. consumers are finding more empty shelves, back-ordered items, and restaurant menu limitations due to major disruptions in the global supply chain due to the COVID-19 pandemic, shipping containter shortages, and a spike in consumer demand.
