"Locally" doesn't always mean in-country. For example, in Russia, China, or the US, "locally" probably means a lot of things would need to be in a specific part of the country. For someone in Africa, Central America, or smaller countries in Asia, "locally" might include a dozen countries in the region. The point is that if global supply chains collapse, you don't starve or die of disease. It's unlikely local supply chains will collapse worldwide. If Norway has enough production capacity to feed itself (or simply the Northern half of Europe as a whole -- Norway can easily import from Poland), it's okay if it imports coconuts and bananas to have tastier food. My concern is if Norway were reliant on imports from America or Africa to get enough calories to live.
