When the mainland gets stuck: How secure is Mallorca's supply?

Answer

How secure is Mallorca's food supply if mainland truck traffic is disrupted?

Mallorca is not facing an acute shortage, but the island is vulnerable because many goods depend on truck transport to mainland ports and then ferry crossings. If those routes are delayed for longer, supermarkets can run low on certain items more quickly than people expect. Basic supplies are still working for now, but the system leaves little room for prolonged disruption.
