Global Events and Local Supplies

Discussion: Global Events and Local Supplies

Response to Chad Bock

We share similar sentiments about coffee and bananas being two of the products whose availability in American local stores depends solely on global trade. I am, however, surprised to learn from your post that if I wanted an HP Elitebook laptop, I would only access it from local stores if trade between the US and China is not compromised in any way. Considering that the U.S. is a superpower and one among the world’s most developed countries, I thought that any electronic device is readily available in the local market.

Response to Jerry Chase

I am quite surprised learning that the electronics sold in local stores in the US are imported. What surprises me, however, from your post is that in the absence of global trade, I would not be able to buy shoes from local stores. I find it surprising that local stores rely on imported shoes yet Nike, one of the world’s famous shoe manufacturers is headquartered in the U.S. Besides Nike, there are many other top shoe manufacturers in the country (Thomas Publishing Company, 2022); it is thus quite interesting to know that local shoe stores would go out of business if globalization was reversed or done away with.

Based on both responses, the common take is that COVID-19 has had the greatest impact on product availability and pricing. The conclusion that I would make from this observation is that the global supply chain is most often affected by pandemics and occurrences that are beyond human planning and control. Taking the example of COVID-19, pandemics and natural occurrences hinder movement of raw materials and resources needed for production; they also impede distribution of finished products.
