11. IMPACT OF COVID-19

 

In March 2020, the World Health Organization (WHO) declared the novel strain of coronavirus (COVID-19) a global pandemic. The Company is designated as a critical infrastructure supplier to the Convenience Store Industry. Both of the Company’s business segments have continued to operate during the pandemic as essential suppliers of goods and services and the Company has taken certain proactive and precautionary steps to ensure the safety of its employees, customers and suppliers, including frequent cleaning and disinfection of workspaces, property and equipment, instituting social distancing measures and mandating remote working environments for certain employees.

 

The Company continues to monitor medical, regulatory and consumer developments, and community-based regulations, however, we cannot predict the long-term effects on our business, including our financial position or results of operations, if governmental restrictions such as Stay-At-Home orders or other such directives continue or are reinstated for a prolonged period of time and materially disrupt consumer demand, our supply chain or our ability to procure products or fulfill orders due to disruptions in our warehouse operations.
