The Starlite Group has apologised to customers for the reduced availability of chocolates and confectionery this Christmas, pointing to ongoing import restrictions that continue to disrupt retail supply chains across T&T.
In a statement posted on Facebook over the weekend, the pharmacy and retail group said it has been unable to stock its usual seasonal range due to significant challenges facing importers. According to the company, restrictions now affect a wide range of essential items, including chocolates and dairy products, food items, vitamins and other similar goods.
