Dairy Free Coconut Cream Update
You might be wondering why it’s been more challenging to source our Dairy Free Coconut Cream mix. We hope the explanation below provides some clarity, and we apologize for any inconvenience this has caused your business.
One of the main ingredients that makes our Dairy Free Coconut Cream mix so delicious and functional is the coconut cream. This is not a commodity like milk or sugar that can be sourced domestically. It is grown and produced in southern Asia and shipped from overseas to the United States. Due to the geopolitical tensions around these Asian countries, many of the freight liners are being forced to reroute ships around the continent of Africa to avoid conflict and pirate-infested waters. These month-long re-routes in shipping have created not only delays but also unreliable sourcing of key imports. Due to the high demand for this ingredient, and the limited availability, we cannot reliably procure everything we need to meet our customer needs.
We ask for your patience while we attempt to find alternative sources. Currently, we have a limited supply of coconut cream mix (this can change at a moments notice), and plan to allocate based on historical needs. Please work with your sales representative for latest information. Unfortunately, if you purchase through a distributor, we cannot guarantee that a distributor will allocate mix for you.
As always, thank you for your continued business and the privilege to serve you.
