The coronavirus has led to developments in the world that will cause not only health and closure to the home, but also changes in the commercial methods used in the world for a long time. It is subject to changes based on mutual trust and known direction and methods of trade. So how did we come to this process?
In the pandemic process, USA; While they confiscated the masks of Germany and France, they seized the masks of the USA and Italy in Germany, and the masks of Italy in France. Italy seized Tunisia’s medical alcohol ship, and the Czech Republic seized Italy’s masks. We can extend this list by pages.
Coronavirus increased interstate piracy in the basic need for health. Europe and the USA, which have been shown as the center of safe trade for a long time, have experienced events that are not seen even in third world countries due to their health products. If states do this, it is not difficult to think about what companies will do to each other in a few years. This will lead to the development of black market environments.
This atmosphere of distrust shows that in the medium and long term, some very important goods will have trouble traveling internationally. During the pandemic period, Land Rover carried some important side parts from China to England with suitcases. Currently, prejudices against Chinese goods have started in many European countries, and this will continue to increase.
We have seen and continue to see that it is obvious that it is impossible to act by excluding China in production during this crisis period. Therefore the country of origin of the change that is unacceptable to China’s European production will be sufficient to overcome era in Turkey and other countries. Of course, we can also evaluate food products that will not be sold to Europe by China. A dual origin of the changes will not be seen on the chance to offer opportunities to countries such as Turkey and Georgia. Black market markets are both a risk and an opportunity.
What are the general reflexes of the black market markets?
Black market economies are the main reflection of the disorganized economy. The absence of a commodity, import prohibition, and quotas lead to unregistered arrivals of the sought commodities and continue with uncontrolled buying and selling in the retail market. Products such as cigarettes, drinks, watches, etc. were sold in the black market for many years. But recently, health products and food have also been falling into black market markets. In whichever sector the bans and obstacles come, black market markets are formed in that sector.
People’s expectations and bluffs, races against time and inconsistent attitudes are common situations in black market shopping. With such mutual measurements, the price of the goods is determined at that moment. The goods can be sold 10 times higher than the market price.
The economic war, which started for about 3 years between the USA and China, was actually the moves that laid the first foundations of black market. These two production and consumption giants are so interdependent in economic and industrial wars. The quotas they put on each other will lead to more growth of invisible trade. How will the production and technology coming from India and China open up to the Western market on a regular and planned basis? Who will combine these equations?
The Mediterranean basin conceives the most important trade opportunities of the last century. Logistics and Customs firms that can manage to get organized can capture the most important opportunities of the last 20 years with the right “Market researches and Sales network” and commercially skip the class. We are ready to establish companies and partnerships that want to combine this picture.
