Vegetable producer Alfred G Pearce said it was operating at 70 per cent of its labour capacity.
One of the country's biggest vegetable producers says it is losing thousands of pounds a week and having to throw away food due to a labour shortage.
Mr Pearce, who is the third generation of his family to work at Alfred G Pearce, said labour shortages were impacting the company's ability to produce goods and of hauliers to transport them. He said the company was having to restrict working says and turn down business as a result, while haulage companies have "lorries sitting ready to go but physically haven't got people to drive them"."In some cases products are being rejected as they are delivered late. Unfortunately we are having to bring it back and dump it.image caption
