COVID-19 Impact: Market Growth Restrained due to Supply Chain Disruptions

The global COVID-19 pandemic has been unprecedented and staggering, with the market experiencing lower-than-anticipated demand across all regions compared to pre-pandemic levels. The sudden market growth reflected by the rise in CAGR is attributable to market’s growth and demand returning to pre-pandemic levels.

The COVID-19 outbreak did affect the global film, photography, and camera business in many aspects. Disruption of the supply chain solutions affected the availability of some inputs and peripherals that are crucial in manufacturing as well as the supply of the final product. Closed stores and fewer visits to the shops impacted sales because most customers wanted to buy the film cameras and related products offline. Moreover, economic instability, inflation, and the cut on unnecessary expenses made consumers prefer the products on the necessities’ list rather than the products associated with leisure and hobbies like film photography equipment.
