COVID-19 impact on FMCG market
The outbreak of coronavirus (COVID-19) pandemic has contributed to increased demand for Poland’s fast-moving consumer goods. At the beginning of 2020, the FMCG shopping basket increased by 13 percent compared to the previous year. At that time, antibacterial gel and rice reached the highest sales. In March 2020, just after the coronavirus outbreak, customers felt a lack of products in shops such as pasta, groats, rice, flour, sugar, and meat. Due to the pandemic, nearly half of Poles were afraid of food shortages in stores and rising food prices.
