Ø B2B marketplaces are amongst the worst hit as most of their supplies are dependent
on exports as well as imports. Industrial, safety and MRO supplies are severely affected,
with most of the production lines for them based out of China.

inequity.

enabled logistics companies began to gain pace to deliver essentials during lockdown.
