The bulk Baijiu market growth was negatively affected by the COVID-19 pandemic. As most of the world was paralyzed by the pandemic, supply chains were disrupted, and Baijiu production and distribution were also affected.

Moreover, the closure of bars, restaurants, and other hospitality venues reduced the demand for Baijiu because these industries are major consumers of this drink.

Social gatherings and events, which traditionally set the stage for baijiu consumption, experienced a decline because of the pandemic. Therefore, lower market demand was also recorded in the lessening number of social and celebratory occasions especially those associated with alcohol drinking. Also, during this period most consumers had to shift to less expensive options that is why they reduced their alcohol intake altogether due to economic uncertainty and decreased purchasing power.

Regardless of these difficulties, several Baijiu producers have changed their ways towards online marketing and selling it directly to consumers. However, before corona virus emerged as the deadliest virus the world has ever seen, the bulk Baijiu market was mostly affected in an extremely negative manner.
