Northumberland Co-operative Dairy is working to fill ice cream orders in NB.

General Manager Jack Christie, told CBC News Aug. 11, ’”Customers did experience some shortages because we weren't able to get all our products from Farmers. But over the last week, we've been able to find alternative suppliers. We're pretty well back to normal, we've got close to 40 of our 45 flavours.’”

Some ice cream vendors have been able to placate their customers with alternate flavours but others have lost business.
