It is a very difficult time for business in general. The business I am involved in sells plumbing and electrical supplies. Common things that we have been buying and selling for decades, such as electrical outlets and rough-in boxes, cannot be obtained from our normal manufacturers. Lead times are ridiculous. We have had to search for new sources and still have difficulty getting certain items. You have to be creative and fluid in order to survive unless you are just setting on a huge pile of cash.
