## Story

Michael Wagner , president of Pool Scouts , a pool maintenance and repair franchise, spoke on WGCL about how supply chain issues in Atlanta have impacted business and how they are still serving customers.

"Demand is at an all-time high, and supply is not nearly keeping up with that demand," Wagner said.

Wagner mentioned that the biggest issue Pool Scouts has run into is not getting enough salt to keep up with the demand they are experiencing. The salt shortage is a result of not enough delivery drivers at the distribution centers.
