IMPACT OF COVID-19 PANDEMIC
The COVID-19 pandemic has had a mixed impact on the overall third-party chemical distribution market. The imposition of the lockdown temporarily discontinued various manufacturing activities, resulting in a decrease in supply, which substantially impacted the third-party chemical distribution market. However, increased demand for medicines globally cushioned the third-party distribution market.
Disruptions to manufacturing in different developing and developed countries such as China, India, Germany, and the US rippled through global supply chains. Cargo was backlogged at major container ports, travel restrictions led to a shortage of truck drivers to pick up containers, and ocean carriers canceled sailings. The resulting shortage of components affected manufacturing operations overseas. Major industries worldwide, including automotive, electronics, and consumer goods, were affected.
In 2021, the marketplace witnessed growth as governments of various countries announced the relaxation of several restrictions, including lockdowns. The manufacturers resumed their operations at full capacity, which helped them overcome the demand and supply gap. Many manufacturers expanded their production capacities to meet the rising consumer demand, which supported the recovery of the third-party chemical distribution market.
