If they can not get appointments, perhaps try a "no appointment" FEMA site if you can. My brother (also works in food industry) went to a walk up site (north Broward county) and I went to a drive up site (Miami-Dade county) and we were both fortunate to get vaccinated same day with minimal wait time.
