In SAM, Brazil has the highest number of COVID-19 cases, followed by Argentina, Colombia, Peru, Chile, among others. The governments of SAM countries have taken various actions to protect their citizens and combat the spread of the disease through lockdowns, trade bans, and travel restrictions. This may impact the growth of the polypropylene compounds market. The manufacturing and construction sectors in the region have been severely affected. The economy of Brazil depends on the construction sector that contributes significantly to the country’s GDP. However, amid the global economic crisis caused by the COVID-19 pandemic, the construction sector’s contribution to the Brazilian economy has decreased. Vaccine procurement and administration will have a significant impact on the region’s recovery. In some areas of Brazil, vehicle production volumes are almost back to the pre-pandemic levels. However, the shortages of key vehicle components are posing challenges for some automotive manufacturers. All business activities are expected to gradually recover in the coming months as the governments from the region continue to push forward their reopening plan to kick start their economies.
