This research analyzes the situation and response of SMEs in China before, during and after the pandemic, attempting to identify the factors that influence sustainable development in the post-epidemic era by the method of hypothesis testing. At the same time, based on the conclusions of this research, corresponding strategic suggestions have been provided for China and countries around the world to cope with economic changes in the post-pandemic era and achieve sustainable development of SMEs.
