Canning Lids Shortage Sparks National Effort and Waste
Lids shortage triggers a nationwide push led by Goodwill Industries and the Agriculture Department to distribute canning lids for home canning. Despite shipments by Ball Corp and Kerr Glass, demand outpaces supply, as stores sell out quickly and some orders are refunded. A GAO audit in Washington cites potential $9.1 million annual savings from consolidated military support functions if services in Japan Okinawa and other posts could be better coordinated.
