Shanghai Lockdowns Disrupt Global Supply Chains

Cameron Johnson, Jarrod Ward

With lockdowns in China spreading in impact and significance, there are extensive challenges being created in supply chains that have the potential for a global impact.

Inside China, the three biggest challenges are labor, domestic logistics, and mobility.

In February and March of 2020, the impact was on the production side where factories were ordered to stop and close. Now two years later, most production is ok, but the impact is on the logistics side. Factories cannot ship, and customers cannot receive.
