The Federal Trade Commission ordered some of the nation's top retailers including Amazon and Walmart, along with major food suppliers, to turn over documents as part of its investigation into critical supply chain disruptions causing 'empty shelves and sky-high prices.'

The goals of the probe will be to determine if supply chain problems have led to particular bottlenecks, anti-competitive practices or higher prices for consumers, the agency said in a statement Monday.

'Supply chain disruptions are upending the provision and delivery of a wide array of goods, ranging from computer chips and medicines to meat and lumber,' FTC Chair Lina Khan stated. 'I am hopeful the FTC’s new study will shed light on market conditions and business practices that may have worsened these disruptions or led to asymmetric effects.'
