BUFFALO, N.Y. — The local appliance industry is balancing an increase in demand with a decrease in supply.
Greg Leumer, Appliance Associates of Buffalo sales manager, said manufacturers are having huge, often unpredictable delays. There may be a few weeks where production seems to be catching up to demand but then a few weeks later there's a shortage again.
“Customers are looking for product that is not available,” he said. “It doesn’t really seem to be getting too much better.”
