The supplies were not originally delivered for the earthquakes, though--they were surplus deliveries from Hurricane Maria. So once the hurricane emergency had passed, they were stored nicely, and had been sitting there ever since. After the earthquakes happened, roughly 3 weeks went by before this stash was remembered/discovered. If they were going to sell it, surely they would have done so in the intervening years?
