Biden: Retailers ready to meet holiday consumer demand

United States President Joe Biden stated on Wednesday that the country’s major retailers are ready to meet consumer demands for the upcoming holidays.

Biden asserted that the country is headed into the holiday season in “strong shape,” adding that retailers told him they are less concerned this year than the previous one when it comes to the state of their supply.

Touching on the ongoing supply chain crisis, Biden noted that the logjam in the country’s ports has begun to lessen, with waiting times dropping 40% over the past few weeks. He said that this means that shelves will be fully stocked and urged the public not to worry about the issue over the holidays.
