Shortage of of Ice Cream

Wanted to treat my 8 year old daughter with Lindt ice cream on the weekend of the 27 July 2024 and was told they were out of stock. Very disappointing as I went to both Sandton City and Cresta and both stores were out of stock. According to the Cresta store they were expecting stock in a months time and Sandton store said they were expecting stock in September only. Why so long to get more stock??? Don't think I will ever go back as there are better and cheaper options for ice cream available
