Venezuela, Diesel, and Your Grocery Bill 🚚

Hi, friend

The news out of Caracas over the last 48 hours has been fast-moving. With the capture of Nicolás Maduro and the U.S. moving to secure energy infrastructure, the "energy map" of the world just shifted in a single weekend.

But here's the part the evening news isn't focusing on: The Domino Effect.

Venezuela's heavy crude is a primary ingredient for diesel fuel - the lifeblood of the American trucking industry. When supply lines in the Caribbean freeze or pivot, diesel prices often spike.

And when diesel goes up, the price of every head of lettuce and gallon of milk follows.

We live in a "Just-in-Time" world. Most grocery stores only carry a 3-day supply of food. When global logistics hit a snag:

Shipping costs rise.
Delivery schedules lag.
Store shelves thin out.

You don't have to be a spectator to global instability.

At Valley Food Storage, we believe the best way to handle a world that changes in 24 hours is to have a plan that lasts 25 years. Our long-term food storage kits aren't just "emergency food"—they are a fixed-cost insurance policy against inflation and supply chain shocks.
