COVID-19 Impact

"Market Growth Impact by Pandemic due to Supply Chain Halt"

The global COVID-19 pandemic has been unprecedented and staggering, with the market experiencing lower-than-anticipated demand across all regions compared to pre-pandemic levels. The sudden market growth reflected by the rise in CAGR is attributable to market’s growth and demand returning to pre-pandemic levels.

In the pandemic, this market also had a phase of slow growth due to the slowdown of the supply and other areas which are connected with this market are highly affected such as production, manufacturing units and others. Due to COVID-19, the transportation and working labors are reduced which affect the production and supply of raw material. The demand for packaging materials and products were reduced for safety purposes and had highly affected the market growth badly. However, post pandemic it is estimated that the demand and supply can regain its momentum.
