Power outage area Some stores in convenience stores are in short supply.
In areas where power outages are prolonged, demand for convenience store rice balls has increased due to reasons such as being unable to cook at home, and some stores have become in short supply. For this reason, convenience stores are responding by increasing the number of delivery trucks.
Among them, Seven-Eleven Japan means that in areas where power outages continue, road signals are not functioning and truck delivery takes longer than usual.
In addition, the limited number of alternative routes in some regions is a factor that takes time to deliver, and the headquarters is taking measures to increase the number of delivery trucks.
In addition, a factory that manufactures food in Chiba Prefecture is said to be taking time to make arrangements from other factories because the raw materials stored in stock can no longer be used due to a power outage.
In addition to the rapid increase in demand, Lawson continued to be unable to have enough products due to the trouble of the product ordering system that occurred on the 10th of this month.
Meanwhile, Lawson's headquarters ordered products based on the results of a week before the typhoon passed, but stores such as Chiba could not reflect the rapid increase in demand after the typhoon passed. It is seen.
The trouble has already been resolved, but we are responding by increasing the number of trucks in order to expedite the delivery of products and dispatching about 150 people including headquarters employees to each store.
In FamilyMart, there were areas where delivery was greatly delayed due to road conditions, and some stores were unable to stock up.
For this reason, the headquarters has dispatched a total of about 200 employees and other employees since the 12th to provide support for cleaning up closed stores and displaying products for resumption.
Ministop means that there are stores where rice balls, drinking water, confectionery breads and cup ramen are in short supply, especially in areas with a large number of power outages, and they can be sold out immediately after delivery.
For this reason, we are preferentially delivering products to these stores.
