UK retail sales is seen picking up but supply shortages hit a new record, exemplifying the problem brought about by supply chain disruptions. That has seen British retailers reduce their stocks to the lowest level since records began in 1985. CBI notes that:
"Disruption to supply chains, combined with staff shortages and uncertain public health conditions mean retailers are finding it difficult to plan for the winter ahead."
