Popis: | The study presents the role of transport for the economy. With economic development and globalization, the need to transport products increases. It has been shown how the outbreak of the Covid-19 pandemic disrupted the global economy, caused downtime in manufacturing companies and shook global supply chains. The food and grain sector turned out to be the in-dustry most resistant to the crisis caused by the SARS-Cov-2 virus. Grain is a necessity prod-uct, it is the basis of nutrition for both humans and animals. The unstable situation in the world caused the increase of food stocks by countries all over the world. This resulted in an increased demand for Polish grain. Trade has made it necessary to transport these products, which has led to an increased demand for transport services. For the purposes of the study, a survey was carried out among 100 entrepreneurs specializing in the transport of cereals. The selection of the surveyed companies was made deliberately. The aim of the research was to find out how the Covid-19 pandemic influenced the functioning of Polish transport companies involved in the transport of cereals in the period from March 2020 to November 2021. It was found that the Covid-19 pandemic did not cause significant disruptions to road transport of grain in Poland. |
