The fall season is upon us. As the days grow shorter and the weather becomes cooler, our thoughts turn to the upcoming holidays. While Christmas seems months away, there’s a good reason to start planning now. Why plan now? Because this year is going to be different.
This Christmas, the Who living in Who-ville are not the only ones who should be worried about the Grinch. You remember the grouchy creature who attempted to end Christmas in the famous book by Dr. Seuss. Well, this year, he’s back.
The reason the Grinch tried to steal Christmas is unclear. According to Dr. Seuss:
“It could be his head wasn’t screwed on just right.
It could be, perhaps, that his shoes were too tight.
But I think the most likely reason of all
May have been that his heart was two sizes too small.”
This year, the reason for an unhappy Christmas will have nothing to do with ill-fitting shoes or the size of the Grinch’s heart. This year, you’ll find the Grinch doing his dirty work in factories worldwide including those right here in the United States. The Grinch is also active at ports, warehouses, and distribution centers around the globe.
This Christmas, you may be looking to buy:
“Pop guns, bicycles, roller skates, drums,
checkerboards, tricycles, popcorn, and plums.”
But you can’t purchase these items, or any others, because they’re sitting in cargo containers on a ship off the coast of Los Angeles.
Once the cargo containers are off the ships and placed onto trains and trucks, they’ll be shipped around the country. Eventually, their contents will be set onto store shelves for consumers to buy. Yet, here, too, you’ll find the Grinch hard at work trying to prevent Christmas from coming.
The impact of the Grinch on the global supply chain is tremendous. From material shortages to labor shortages, it’s imperative to understand that this Christmas will be like none other.
Whether you’re looking to buy gifts for friends and loved ones or branded gifts for employees and clients,
Don’t let the Grinch
steal your Christmas this year,
plan ahead, buy early,
and be of good cheer.
