According to Phu Tho Newspaper reporters, due to the flooding in the province, the relief goods market in Viet Tri City has run out of many items, including life jackets.
Stores specializing in selling protective gear have run out of life jackets.
Specifically, a trader at the City Central Market shared that life jackets have been out of stock for several days now, even though they have been ordered but have not arrived yet. This trader also confirmed that the upstream source of goods does not have enough to supply because this is a common "out of stock" situation. A representative of the Viet Tri City Market Management Board said that this is an item that does not need to be stocked regularly, so traders in the market only import a small quantity to sell. When demand increases suddenly, this item is also quickly sold out, especially at this time, it is difficult to get more.
Shops selling protective gear on Hung Vuong and Quang Trung streets are also out of stock. The owner of a shop selling protective gear on Quang Trung Street for many years said: "For the past 2-3 days, many volunteer groups have been buying life jackets to bring to relief efforts, so my shop has run out of them. The source warehouse is also very scarce. This morning I was only able to import waist-high life jackets to serve retail customers, and now I only have 2-3 left."
Contacting volunteer groups that have collected a large number of life jackets, they said that these items were collected from many places, transported from warehouses inside and outside the province. Most volunteer groups went online, asking to connect with warehouses that still had stock to order large quantities or benefactors to buy support from other places to transport to bring to relief.
On social networks, under posts about wanting to buy life jackets, many comments leave addresses of warehouses and suppliers in and outside the province for people to contact. Most people are looking to buy foam core life jackets, which cost between 30,000 and 100,000 VND/piece depending on size. There are also warehouses and suppliers that offer deep discounts or free large quantities as a way to join hands to help people in flood-hit areas.
