QMI: June 2020

Australia is now fully engaged in the fight against COVID-19.

While it should not be forgotten that COVID-19 is, first and foremost, a health crisis there is no doubt that the virus has impacted all aspects of our national life.

Government, the private sector and industry and the community are now called to work together to ensure we restore safety and that life can, eventually, return to normal and as quickly as possible.

Sales volumes have been especially affected, although, in some sub-markets, they have partly rebounded......However, the last lockdown (albeit less strict) showed how resilient, agile and innovative the industry is.
