Consumers find shortages and higher prices as COVID-impacted supply chains shift for recovery

Mikey Vu, partner with retail and operations practices at Bain & Co., says there has been a shift since the beginning of the pandemic now that consumers are shopping increasingly online and companies have solved some of the problems that arose early in the pandemic.
