Baby formula has become increasingly unavailable in the U.S. over the last 10 months.
Both Lyons and Wowak also pointed to supply-chain impediments due to the pandemic as a contributing factor to the current formula shortage.
Supply-chain problems include raw material and labor shortages, Lyons said, as well as suppliers and consumers making panic purchases., professor at the University of Southern California Marshall School of Business, told us in an email, “At the moment, [the] pandemic has caused significant issues in a number of supply chains, baby formulas being one of them, so we are experiencing unusual shortages or delays for numerous items.
She also noted that the situation likely escalated following Abbott’s recall because of the company’s role as the exclusive supplier for more than half of the WIC agencies. So, the current shortage of baby formula is due to a recall from a company that handles a large share of the market, paired with ongoing supply-chain issues.
