First KFC… and now Nando’s. Fast-food chains are suffering supply chain issues and now peri-peri chicken is the latest casualty

Peri-peri but no chicken for the spices?

Fast-food chain Nando’s has been forced to close more than 40 stores in Britain after covid related shortages of its peri peri chicken

The UK food industry has been experiencing a disruption recently… after staff shortages hit its chicken supply chain.

Nando’s said shortages have been caused by staff “isolation periods” and suppliers “struggling to keep up with demand”

“The UK food industry has been experiencing disruption across its supply chain in recent weeks due to staff shortages and Covid isolations, and a number of our restaurants have been impacted.”
Nando’s said

Last week rival KFC said supply chain issues were disrupting both their food and packaging stocks nationwide too.

The company warned fried-chicken lovers that there could be delays for weeks.

A statement said “things may be a little different” in store and packaging might also be changed.

Dow drops 800+ points as AI and trade worries hit tech and retail stocks; bonds rise amid market volatility.

Stocks plunged sharply as concerns over artificial intelligence and trade tensions rattled investors, sending the Dow down more than 800 points. Heavyweights like American Express, Goldman Sachs, and JPMorgan were key contributors to the drop.

Software companies were hit particularly hard after a report suggested AI could impact economic growth, triggering further losses across tech shares.

Trade-sensitive retailers including American Eagle Outfitters, Ralph Lauren, and Yeti Holdings also faced setbacks as market uncertainty spiked. Bonds, meanwhile, rallied as investors sought safety in a volatile market.

U.S. investors withdrew $75 billion from stocks in six months, fastest in 16 years, with $52 billion in 2026 alone.

U.S. investors are withdrawing money from domestic stocks at the fastest rate in 16 years, with $75 billion leaving equity products over the past six months. The trend accelerated in 2026, with $52 billion pulled from Wall Street so far.

Concerns over AI risks and weaker performance at home are prompting investors to look abroad, even though a softer dollar makes foreign investments more expensive. Emerging markets are seeing inflows at the fastest pace in five years, according to Bank of America.

As global opportunities become more attractive, many U.S. investors are now evaluating overseas markets for growth potential.
