The COVID-19 pandemic has disrupted the business cycle. As a result, MSME actors have to rack their brains to overcome these problems. One of them is a leather glove manufacturer from Yogyakarta, Northy, which has increased its product marketing online after the closure of stores supplied by the Corona virus.

One of the owners of Northy, Ilham Setia Pradana, explained that at the beginning of the pandemic there had been a decline in turnover from hundreds of millions to tens of millions. However, it can gradually be overcome. "During this pandemic, it was clear that (sales) were going down. At the beginning of the pandemic, it was only tens of millions. But we try to sell online in various market places

"Because many shops in Jakarta are closed, so like it or not, you have to be fast (selling) online. Yes, there have been ups and downs, but at this point in terms of turnover, it's better than the beginning of the pandemic," added Ilham.
