Supply chains in the context of the COVID-19

ABSTRACT Crown virus pandemic (COVID-19) in 2019/2020 is a new respiratory disease. More than one pandemic in recent history has affected the global economy. In addition to the fight for human health, all countries are taking action to mitigate the negative economic consequences. Within this framework, a number of measures have been taken to reduce disruption to commodity flows and Supply Chains (SC), as well as to the provision of services. The SC represents the flow of goods, services and information from raw material suppliers, manufacturers, distributors, retailers to the end-customers. There is a main problem in how the end-customer comes to the consumable product, since the SC is unable to provide its complete flow. All emergent shapes of the SCs: complete, short or reversible, undergo some transformation and adjustment to new conditions. In this paper, the authors research the changing context in which SCs take place, the limitations of particular emergent SCs shapes, and the measures and ways to adapt them in complex pandemic context. In the paper, authors, by applying scientific methods, research the SCs adjustment in the context of a pandemic as a main output of this research.
