The third quarter Commodity Intelligence Quarterly (CIQ), presented by Supplyframe, revealed a 77% growth of “red” dimensions in the supply and demand market dynamics heat map, which was previously a mix of yellows and reds, indicating that significant shortages will continue through the first quarter of 2023 at a minimum.

Supplyframe CIQ provides an unmatched level of market intelligence for an industry that is deep into shortages and risks coming from every angle,” says Steve Flagg, CEO and founder of Supplyframe. “CIQ is critical for navigating the numerous obstacles in the present as well as future opportunities.”
