Abstract

The impact of COVID-19 on supply chains across the country is significant, and this has led to the funding, employment issues and shutdown for small and micro-enterprises particularly. However, it also provides opportunities for small and micro enterprises to reorganize their business structures or transformation, as well as receiving supports from the government. Due to the importance of small and micro businesses to the domestic economy, this paper provides an overview of risks and opportunities faced by small and micro enterprises under the COVID-19 supply chain crisis, and gives suggestions for the improvement of the government and enterprises. It can be concluded that, under the COVID-19 supply chain crisis, small and micro enterprises bear the risks on working mode, payment, the break of capital chain, and the inefficient supply chain management. Meanwhile, they also face opportunities including management reorganization, self-reflection, digital transformation, and the government support.
