Supplies are running ‘two to three weeks’ behind, a situation the store says has been exacerbated by post-Brexit staff shortages
Harrods has delayed its summer discount sale by two to three weeks because of global supply chain hold-ups, it has announced.
“Our supply chain is running two to three weeks behind where it should be,” Michael Ward, the managing director of the upmarket Knightsbridge department store, told Bloomberg TV at the Qatar Economic Forum. “A good example of that is, we’ve just delayed the summer sale for two weeks because I need another 10% of new-season stock to allow me to function into the new year.”
