COVID-19 scenario analysis:

• The demand for slider zipper pouch is expected to decrease in 2020 due to low demand from different industries, such as pharmaceuticals and food, owing to the lockdown imposed by government of many countries.
• COVID-19 crisis is likely to affect the slider zipper pouch industry negatively as a result of halted manufacturing and massive reduction in demand for luxury and non-essential services globally.
• COVID-19 crisis had a mixed impact on the packaging industry, mainly due to closure of physical retail stores globally. However, the availability of online retailing has absorbed the high impact of this shutdown.
• The requirement of e-commerce specific packaging is likely to remain strong; although, the e-commerce companies would have to focus on protection of goods and sanitization of packages. 
• In addition, the food packaging industry is on the frontline within the global packaging market, owing to the demand for essential products, such as groceries and fresh food, mainly from local e-retail sites. 
• Industrial, transportation, and bulk packaging has faced a sharp decline, owing to decreased demand for non-essential goods during the first two quarters of 2020. 
• Low disposable income of maximum population and weak demand for packaging from industrial goods led the packaging industry to face significant pressure of reduction in both wholesale as well as retail costs. 
• Consumers are likely to stay hesitant for consumption of luxury products, travel, and hospitality services. This is expected to hinder the packaging industry growth in the future after the COVID-19 crisis.
