A burgeoning and diverse population offers opportunities for non-durable goods wholesalers to tap into new customer segments and boost sales, particularly in regions experiencing increased consumer demand.

The outbreak of the COVID-19 pandemic dealt a severe blow to the non-durable goods merchant wholesalers' market. The pandemic disrupted supply chains due to trade restrictions and led to decreased consumption as a result of government-imposed lockdowns worldwide. COVID-19, an infectious disease with symptoms resembling the flu, emerged in Wuhan, China, in 2019, subsequently spreading across the globe. National governments implemented measures to contain the virus, resulting in decreased production and trade of non-essential goods, along with an overall economic decline as countries went into lockdown. The pandemic had a detrimental impact on businesses throughout 2020 and into 2021. Nevertheless, it is anticipated that the non-durable goods merchant wholesalers' market will gradually recover from this unprecedented shock throughout the forecast period, as it was an unforeseeable 'black swan' event unrelated to ongoing market weaknesses or fundamental global economic issues.
In the current digital economy era, wholesalers are increasingly embracing predictive analytics as a powerful tool. Predictive analytics leverages past data to forecast future outcomes and can be instrumental in enhancing various aspects of wholesale operations. This tool's applications encompass predicting customer profitability, improving marketing campaigns, and modeling different business scenarios. For instance, SAP HANA integrated with BW is a widely used predictive analytics tool for wholesale distribution and materials management, including the paper industry.
