It’s one of those good problems companies like to have, so much demand but not enough product. Adidas, the uniform supplier of Major League Soccer and Inter Miami, are seeing Inter Miami jerseys fly out the door. Messi’s iconic number 10 is the hottest item in the world and Adidas can’t meet the demand.
Not only is Adidas overflowing with demand at local stores and online, but the sports brand needs to also supply retailers all over the world with the Argentine’s kit. Inter Miami has a similar problem as the jersey is selling rapidly and needs to meet the demand of fans buying online or going to the stadium.
