London, UK -- (SBWire) -- 10/04/2021 --Although life seems to be getting back to normal for many of us, even as the pandemic continues to rumble on, what many people don't realise is that we are currently in the middle of the worst supply chain crisis since the 1970s in the UK. The fault lies fairly squarely at the door of COVID-19, which threw a huge spanner in the works of the fragile and intricately connected global supply chains that are vital to the British economy. However, issues that have been contributed by Brexit certainly haven't made things any easier. Figures now released for July 2021 show that the economy actually came close to stalling over the summer - growth slumped to just 0.1% and the disruption being experienced from shortages of both workers and materials really hit hard. These supply chain issues have affected all sectors, from manufacturing to retail and construction with more shortages and supply delays forecast for the coming months.
DSJ Global is a British supply chain recruitment agency focused on connecting talented people with organisations where they have the potential to make a real difference. The firm was established in 2004 and works to secure business critical talent in end-to-end supply chain across key areas, such as procurement, technical operations and logistics.
