But UmarFarooq Zahoor said that besides all the changes in this sector, the company needs to be agile to fulfill all world-level demand and resume all operations in the mid of this epidemic.

Sheikh Umar Farooq Zahoor said that as an international company, all the epidemic, as well as pandemic risks, are too vital for all of them and the company needs to be contingent with some continuous business plans in place. Also, the situation has marked some areas where the sector needs to do some re-work and some bans such as travel and restrictions are something that we cannot accept too rapidly at this time.

What comes out after this pandemic in the logistics industry is that how disturbances in the supply chains can cause some top-class issues to the supply of all crucial products and it needs some critical work that needs to be done. Umar said we need to do some critical work on supply chains and logistics to keep the operations on track and overcome all hurdles during this hard time.
