Poll: Do you plan on starting your Christmas shopping early to avoid delivery delays?

Consumer growth is having a profound impact on global supply chains.

People have been advised to get in early to avoid disappointment as some of the biggest toy and home furnishing companies operating in Ireland have already said that they are experiencing major delays ahead of the busy season.
