Change in price of business supplies due to COVID-19 in South Africa in 2020

In terms of prices of supplies, roughly one third of businesses in South Africa indicated that prices had increased more than normal during the coronavirus pandemic. This according to answers they provided in an April 2020 survey. Responses were mixed, however, as nearly 20 percent said to see no change in the prices of supplies, whereas just 1.4 percent of businesses saw that prices decreased more than normal.

在供应价格方面，据2020年4月的一项调查结果显示，南非大约三分之一的商企表示，在冠状病毒疫情期间，其供应价格较往常上涨幅度更大。然而，反馈意见不尽一致，其中近20%的商企声称供应价格并未发生改变，而仅有1.4%的商企观察到供应价格较往常下降幅度更大。
