COVID-19 Impact
The COVID-19 outbreak has had a significant impact on the industries that were primarily functioning on outdoor activities. Stricter lockdown measures caused people to stay at home which limited the operations of critical industries like construction, and mining owing to a lack of human capital. With the closure of mines and construction projects, the demand for mining and construction tools was also affected. However, with the resumption of services post-pandemic, the global market is likely to witness appreciable growth over the forthcoming years.
