From the above operating segments that might able benefit from MCO are Grain & Agribusiness and Consumer Products. Both operating segments had a combined revenue of RM 3,629,842 which representing 80.16 % of PPB 2018 revenue.
During MCO Malaysian would start to stock up frozen food, can food and eggs as this food have long shelf life besides that there would be more cooking at home hence increase of demand of ediable oil. These are the product of consumer products segment.
With many more Malaysian staying at home, starting of home base activities like cooking and baking would increase the demand of flours and eggs which would benific the Grain & Agribusiness segment.
Although MCO most likely to affect the Film & Distribution and Properties segment. It does not affect PPB much because this segments only stand 5.65% of 2018 revenue.
