English term

the duration of the pothole

English to French Marketing Wine / Oenology / Viticulture
Wineries are facing unprecedented challenges, both in terms of immediate operational obstacles such as how to pay employees now that sales have slowed, as well as medium-term threats such as how to hang on to clients that may well be re-evaluating portfolios and reducing numbers of suppliers. Added to all this is the uncertainty about **the duration of the “pothole”**—the period of quarantine that has closed restaurants and brought travel to a standstill—and of the pace and character of the recovery.

Quel sens donner à "pothole" ici?
Merci pour votre aide.
