Retailers say supply chain disruptions affecting some World Cup merchandise

As the FIFA World Cup draws near, at least one sports retailer says supply chain disruptions are affecting the delivery of certain merchandise to Singapore. Another says they started preparing to bring in stock almost a year ago. With the expanded 48 teams in this year’s format, they add that sourcing from more federations worldwide is making logistics harder. The five-week tournament kicks off in 10 days. A special Matchday Football Market at *SCAPE in July will also feature over 20 merchants selling vintage shirts, collectibles, artwork and trading cards. Nikhil Khattar reports.
