Our industry is struggling like so many others with labor shortages, supply chain issues & COVID challenges leading to longer lead-times for our products. Luckily, we have several manufacturers offering a variety of ‘Quick-Ship’ products and/or with shorter lead-times in general. For our playground vendors, most quick-ship items are simple pieces that can be received and installed easily to spruce up or add to an existing play space. All of the below are currently offered on the MN State Contract at a discounted price.
