Snus shortage in Norway: "We apologize"

The shelves in Norway are empty – of snus.

It was in March this year that there was a fire at Swedish Match's snus factory in Gothenburg. Now the company is having trouble delivering throughout Norway, reports VG.

We take this very seriously. We apologize that we are not where we want to be. We have increased production and we wanted to increase it even more through more shifts at the factory, says Nils Erlimo, communicator for Swedish Match in Norway, to the newspaper.

The hope is to get the problem in order within a few weeks.
