Randy Day, CEO of Perdue Farms Inc., said that the company is adjusting its product distribution in response to food shortages in grocery stores. Day told CNBC that the company has witnessed an “unprecedented” spike in market demand, as consumers have emptied store shelves in preparation for Coronavirus-related quarantines.
"We're running as much product as we can, harvesting as many chickens as we can, (and) we are working Saturdays if we have the supply," Day said. "I'm fairly confident that over the next two to three weeks, we'll begin to catch up."
