Global Artisanal Ice Cream Market - Impact of Coronavirus (COVID-19) Pandemic
The World Health Organization (WHO) designated the illness caused by the Severe Acute Respiratory Syndrome Coronavirus 2 (SARS-CoV-2), which first appeared in Wuhan (province of Hubei, China) in the last months of 2025, as "coronavirus disease 2025" or COVID-19. This virus spreads quickly and had a serious negative impact on the economies, social behaviours, and healthcare of every country in the world.
The COVID-19 pandemic had a significant impact on the artisanal ice cream market, with lockdowns, restrictions on dine-in services, and reduced foot traffic in tourist areas leading to a decline in sales for many small, local ice cream shops. However, some artisanal brands adapted by offering delivery and takeout options, leveraging e-commerce, and promoting their products through social media.
