COVID-19 Impact: Market Growth Restrained by Pandemic due to Supply Chain Disruptions

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.

The pandemic has caused a temporary global shutdown in many sectors. This temporary shutdown caused by the COVID-19 pandemic has adversely affected several industries, resulting in reduced revenues, reduced product sales, reduced production rates, unemployment and many other serious consequences. This caused a downturn in the economy, as most manufacturing facilities were closed or operating at half capacity. Due to the travel restrictions and closures imposed on the regions, passenger demand for transport has decreased significantly, which continues to affect turnover and investments.
