FREE e-book: The impact of COVID-19 on the world’s logistics | Global Sources

by M.C Brown (Content Editor)

The logistics sector plays an integral role in facilitating trade and commerce and helping businesses get their products to customers – and the ongoing pandemic has put an unprecedented strain on the industry. Mandated lockdowns and travel restrictions across the globe had disrupted activities at both manufacturing facilities and logistics operations.

In the wake of the disruptions brought by the pandemic, key supply chains in logistics and transportation industries were impeded across air, ocean and land freight sectors. Cargoes were backlogged at major container ports, shipments were delayed, and orders took longer to arrive.

The Impact of COVID-19 on the World’s Logistics takes a hard look at the significant economic impact of the pandemic on the global supply chain and logistics and how businesses are coping with the disruptions. The book gives an outlook of the logistics sector, the challenges in key transportation segments, and what the future holds for the industry and beyond.
