If you need evidence of the struggling U.S. supply chain, look no further than Jim Grundy’s payroll at Sisu Energy in Fort Worth.
FORT WORTH, Texas — Throughout the end of last year, retailers struggled to keep supplies on shelves. Holiday gifts arrived late to people’s homes and high prices plagued Texans everywhere from the gas station to the grocery store. Most of the issues are an affect of the struggling U.S. supply chain. Months after the holidays, the supply chain situation is still lagging, and some experts say it may not get there in 2022.
Some companies, like Sisu Energy in Forth Worth, are offering higher pay to truck drivers to try and fill the gap. Sisu is one of the largest companies running trucks in and out of the oil and gas wells across the state. Grundy built the company to run lean by employing a lot of new technology in the mix. The company got its biggest attention last year when Grundy and company started offering semi owner-operators as high as $14,000 per week routes to work with them.
“We’re not getting new drivers from outside the oil and gas space to come join what we’re doing,” said Grundy. On top of those recent developments, Hutson said the way supplies move has also transformed. More people are choosing same-day delivery through online services, and created additional needs in shipping and transporting goods.
