3Global COVID-19 Forecast Update, May 2020 Source: Edge by Ascential channel forecasts. Data sourced on 22 May 2020, variations may occur on data sourced after this time.
As consumers worry about leaving home and
physical stores are shut for months, we expect
ecommerce growth to accelerate by 8.2
percentage points in 2020, as we are revising
our growth outlook from +22.2% to +30.4%.
Grocery channels are benefitting
from stockpiling and increased
home eating in 2020. Meanwhile,
the pharma & health channel is
receiving a boost from rising
health and hygiene awareness.
Non-food channels will see sales take heavy
hits in 2020. Despite bouncing back in 2021,
most will not return to pre-COVID-19 sales
levels as part of revenue is permanently lost to
online.
