Sales at grocery stores has fallen after the stock piling by the consumers during mid-March, but the volume is still higher than previous years This can infer due to reduction in demand of fresh Products like milk product, poultry product, meat etc. From store which is responsible for negative effect on fresh product supply chain business directly Further making it more challenging as consumers are avoiding physical shopping along with limited shopping hours for shop keeper with very small no. Focus has shifted from these giants and it will take time for the formulation of latest distribution channels at food retail level
