What Lockdown? World’s Cocaine Traffickers Sniff at Movement Restrictions: OCCRP reporters have found that the world’s cocaine industry — which
produces close to 2,000 metric tons a year and makes tens of billions of
dollars — has adapted better than many other legitimate businesses. The
industry has benefited from huge stores of drugs warehoused before the
pandemic and its wide variety of smuggling methods. Street prices around
Europe have risen by up to 30 percent, but it is not clear how much of
this is due to distribution problems, and how much to drug gangs taking
advantage of homebound customers.
What is clear is that cocaine continues to flow from South America to Europe and North America.
