Whole Foods told its employees that the ongoing outages and disruptions at its primary distributor, United Natural Foods (UNFI), may take "several days to resolve." The Amazon-owned retail giant told staff in an internal communication, seen by TechCrunch, that UNFI was experiencing a "nationwide technology system outage," which UNFI has for its part described as a cybersecurity incident. Whole Foods said in the communication to staff that the cyberattack is affecting UNFI's "ability to select and ship products from their warehouses," and that this will "impact our normal delivery schedules and product availability." The missive to staff included instructions to limit communications with customers. The "only single approved customer talking point" that Whole Foods employees can share with customers, according to the communication, is that the grocery giant is having "temporary supply challenges."
