The COVID-19 pandemic has affected the petroleum jelly market to a considerable extent. The low demand from end-use industries led to a decline in the growth rate of the petroleum jelly market. Frequent lockdowns due to the emerging variants of the novel coronavirus caused disruptions in the production process. It also led to disturbances in the supply chain mechanisms. This aspect has had a significant impact on the growth trajectory of the petroleum jelly market. Nevertheless, mass vaccination drives and relaxations provided by government bodies of numerous countries are helping stabilize the growth of the petroleum jelly market. Furthermore, economical packages released by the government bodies to support the manufacturing sector will also prove to be a boon for the players in the petroleum jelly market. The Indian Government recently announced a relief package to support the economy in the fight against the COVID-19 pandemic.
