Story:
Remember the 2020 panic? Toilet paper wasn’t “running out” — the supply chain just wasn’t ready for panic-buying.
Normal demand = steady factory runs.
Panic = 3–5x orders overnight.
Factories couldn’t instantly scale up (machines run 24/7).
Distribution bottlenecks left shelves empty.
Lesson: it wasn’t shortage of TP, it was shortage of flexibility.
The real wipeout wasn’t in bathrooms — it was in the supply chain. 🧻😂
