Walmart says supply chain issues causing low stock at BC stores (PHOTOS)

Walmart Canada is apologizing to customers after some British Columbian shoppers noticed some shockingly bare shelves at stores across the province.

The grocery store chain told Daily Hive that internal supply chain challenges are affecting the fresh and frozen food stock.

“This is not what our customers expect and deserve,” an email reads.

While Walmart said fresh and frozen food is impacted, one customer also pointed out a low stock of shoes at their local store.

At some point, @WalmartCanada will restock their shoes, right? 😅 pic.twitter.com/JuIrPPIMq2
