Distribution is the process of making a product or service available for the consumer or business user who needs it. Industrial distribution applies mathematics, science, engineering technology, business, data processing, communications, quality, and supply chain management to the wholesaling and distribution of technological products. Most distributors provide a range of services such as technical support, warranty or service. Distributors are essential in helping reach markets manufacturers could not otherwise target.
The COVID-19 outbreak has disrupted business and economic activity around the world. It is expected to have a certain impact on the Industrial Distribution market in the short term. Production and manufacturing have been severely affected as several countries around the world declared nationwide lockdowns and temporary shutdowns of various industries. Production suspension not only exacerbates the shortage of funds for small and medium-sized enterprises, but also reduces the solvency of enterprises, which may affect production. Some enterprises are in difficulties or even go bankrupt, which will affect the downstream demand market of the Industrial Distribution industry. The epidemic has severely affected logistics and transportation, making it difficult to transport industrial distributed products. Trade barriers further affect the gap between supply and demand. As a result, the epidemic has had a negative impact on Industrial Distribution's entire supply chain.
At the same time, companies operating in the wake of the outbreak need to protect the lives and health of employees and purchase epidemic prevention materials such as masks and disinfectants, which will increase production costs.
