this is my business.... We are slowly seeing manufacturers (mostly smaller ones) begining to close. Either due to lower demand (no food service) or because to many employees are in isolation... (Think empire poultry)
What type of manufacturers? Of processed foods, or raw basics?

Right now only finished product and mostly specialty items. But that may change if too many employees are infected

Not sure about sukkos. But food basics might be a shortage in the next few weeks. Spoke today to a large distributor his words.
Four weeks I’ve been waiting for someone to raise alarm bells about this isn’t there anything that can be done?
Be it government or unions etc. imposing regulations to treat food establishments like nursing homes or the like

You can always just make a new thread for that instead of going off topic in this one.

International imports vs. domestic manufacturing? And when looking at imports, the “exotic” category would likely be hit harder then “regular” things.

My grandfather used to tell about how one year there was a delay with the ship bringing esrogim to NY and almost nobody had an esrog until the ship showed up the day before erev yom tov. They got unloaded overnight and the peddlers were filling their pushcarts with them at the docks. He said that was both the cheapest (inflation adjusted) and nicest esrog he ever had.

Biggest kaoher distributor is Kayco.
Facts on the ground which I deal with everyday prove home wrong. Kayco themselves had a grape juice shortage before pesach and I have the emails to prove it.
