Because of an increase in sales, we are facing a global shortage of tequila, according to reports.
Analysts previously forecasted the global tequila market to grow by more than $9 billion by 2021 but a worsening agave shortage is causing price spikes in the industry and it’s suggesting this could lead to shortages even among the major manufacturers of the drink.
It takes seven to eight years to reach the plants to reach full maturity so now we all just need to be in "waiting mode."
