Consumer goods, especially food, are transported to all parts of the country every day via a smoothly functioning distribution system. If this system fails as a result of blocked roads or for any other reason, remote locations can quickly be cut off from food supplies. Nowadays we can assume that supplies will not be held up for months, but they could still be held up for several days. This is why we recommend that you keep enough supplies to tide you over for about a week.
