Abstract:

Those practicing safe trick-or-treating this year have good reason to be excited this Halloween. According to candystore.com, a candy retailer with close ties to candy manufacturers and distributors, the drop in door-to-door activity caused by COVID-19 is expected to be around 20%, which is significantly greater than the 11% anticipated drop in Halloween candy sales. When you stir the cauldron, that’s a brew for a lot more candy per costumed child. It’s also good news for the truck drivers, ships, rail operators, and air cargo folks responsible for getting the candy into Americans’ bowls, baskets, and plastic pumpkins.
