“…The effects of a pandemic are analyzed in macroeconomic terms, e.g., the impact of a pandemic on oil prices (Gil-Alana and Monge 2020), on the returns of digital companies (Ben-Ahmed et al, 2021, Hyman et al, 2021, or from a microeconomic level, e.g., the impact of a pandemic on individual enterprises (Margherita and Heikkila 2021;Wu et al, 2021;Golubeva 2021;Grima et al, 2020) or enterprises in a given industry (Kaczmarek et al, 2021;Chen et al, 2020;Khan et al, 2020). The literature on the subject also includes studies on the impact of the pandemic on the activities of the enterprises from the SME sector (Bai et al, 2021, Markovic et al, 2021Dai et al, 2021) or on large corporations (Margherita and Heikkila 2021). There are studies showing the impact of the pandemic on the activities of listed companies (Shen et al, 2020;Devi et al, 2020;Rababah et al, 2020), but to the best of the authors' knowledge there is no study showing the impact of the pandemic on individual industries in Poland.…”
