Chickpeas are among the tinned beans which customers have noticed Tesco is lacking on its shelves
This has led to some coming out and mentioning the issue on social media which has forced Tesco to apologise for the inconvenience caused.
One user, called Leah Luna said on X: ‘Why is no one talking about the fact there is a bean shortage in@Tesco ??? I want ma beans’.
Another user, Glenn Smith asked the supermarket: ‘@Tesco what’s happening to your range of own brand tinned beans. Nothing is in stock and for the last few weeks?’
Another one said: ‘@Tesco how come your Lisburn store doesn’t have any tinned beans? Like kidney or black etc??’
The supermarket giant has told MailOnline it is experiencing some temporary availability issues on a small number of its own brand bean lines and apologises for the inconvenience caused.
It pointed out though that brand baked beans in tomato sauce are unaffected by this.
Butter and Borlotti beans are exported by the US, as well as Italy for the latter while black beans primarily come from Brazil followed by the States as well and Argentina.
Chickpeas though primarily come from India, with the country bveing the largest global supplier as well as Canada and Australia.
