Annotation. Vertically integrated supply chains span key sectors of the global economy. The outbreak of COVID-19 was first detected in the city of Wuhan, China, in December 2019 and the further spread of coronavirus to more than 110 countries led to destabilization of business processes around the world. The study presents an analysis of the impact of the epidemic on global logistics networks. Recommendations are developed to increase the flexibility and sustainability of supply chains in the face of uncertainty in demand and the functional cycle.
Key words. Integration, logistics, strategy, management, supply chain, risks, uncertainty.
