What can businesses do during the COVID-19 crisis from a customs perspective to minimise supply chain disruption and what steps can they put in place to ensure Business As Usual post crisis?
Cross-border trade is suffering considerably from the effects of the global COVID-19 pandemic. It is not so easy to find your way through the maze of new trade restrictive and trade facilitation measures, and what they mean in the short term and long term for customs and trade management. So it may be helpful to take a step back and look at the main implications and a starting point for prioritisation and action.

The COVID-19 situation drastically changes the business especially within the frame of events. Since physical events are now forbidden, some organisations consider to adapt the set-up of the event to comply with the current measures by implementing a virtual event instead.
Now the coronavirus is spreading around the world, the first priority is people’s well-being. But the economic impact of the measures the government is taking in order to contain the virus from spreading further, is also considerable.
Wir hatten kein Billett für die Zirkus Vorstellung und es war ausverkauft. Die Vernunft sagt klar, dass es nichts bringt vor Ort zu gehen und an der Kasse nach einem Billett zu fragen. Es ist November, es ist kalt und es regnet. Ein Film zu Hause zu schauen scheint die bessere Lösung zu sein. Wir sind trotzdem gegangen.

The spectacle takes place once every 20/25 years. The first one was in the year of 1797, the most recent one in 1999. The budget for the festival amounts to an unbelievable amount of 100 Million francs. There are 6’500 participants, 5’500 actors, 1’000 musicians, cows, goats, hoarses – it is massive. I don’ recall ever having seen anything so wondrously colorful and varied in my life. The actors are from the region and are amateurs. They wear bright costumes and perform with an unbelievable amount of passion and pride. The director of the festivity, Danielle Finzi Pasca, who was a clown at Circus Nock, directed the closing ceremony at the Olympics in Torino and Sochi. What he put together in Vevey with the ensemble was huge and unforgettable. What impressed me the most, were the participants who created something unique through countless hours of work. You can join the spectacle till the 11th of August. Otherwise in the year of 2040. The journey is worth it.

Die Show findet einmal pro 20/25 Jahre statt. Die erste war im Jahre 1797, die letzte 1999. Das Budget für die Veranstaltung beträgt unglaubliche 100 Millionen Franken. Es gibt 6’500 Akteure, 5’500 Schauspieler, 1’000 Musiker, Kühe, Ziegen, Pferde – Es ist gewaltig. Ich mag mich nicht erinnern, dass ich je etwas so monumentales, farbenfrohes und abwechslungsreiches gesehen hatte. Die Darsteller kommen aus der Region und sind Laien. Sie tragen farbenfrohe Kostüme und machen mit unglaublicher Leidenschaft und Stolz mit. Der Regisseur dieses Festes Danielle Finzi Pasca, der früher in Zirkus Nock als Clown das Handwerk lernte, inszenierte Olympische Abschlussfeier in Turin und Sotchi. Das was er in Vevey mit diesem Ensemble zusammenstellt hatte, war einfach gewaltig und unvergesslich. Das was mich aber am meisten beeindruckt, sind die Leute die da mitmachen und in unzähligen Stunden Arbeit etwas Einmaliges kreiert hatten. Bis zum 11. August habt ihr Zeit dabei zu sein. Sonst wieder vielleicht im Jahr 2040. Eine Reise lohnt sich.
