Notice - PLA Shortage Worldwide

We have been notified from each of our various suppliers that there is an ongoing global shortage of PLA raw material. Our factories have recently advised us that they cannot produce our current order requests and no new orders will be accepted until sometime in 2020.

Items that are affected include: 

• PLA Cutlery
• PLA Straws
• PLA Cold Cups
• PLA Lids (Hot & Cold)
• PLA Portion Cups
• PLA-Lined Hot Cups
• PLA-Lined Soup Containers

Due to this current and uncontrollable situation, several of our PLA SKU’s may become backordered and existing orders may experience additional delays in production and/or shipment. These delays are predicated solely upon securing the raw materials necessary for production. 

Here at Berk Enterprises, Inc., we will continue to try to find additional resources and suitable options for you, our customers. We sincerely apologize for any inconveniences this may cause. Please reach out to us with any additional questions or concerns as we continue to exceed your expectations. 

Thank you for your patience and understanding as we work through this process together. We also want to thank you for your business. Both are greatly appreciated.
