sure, presumably there are some people that only make or deliver plastic spoons. But, they aren't many.
Businesses will need to change practices. Supporting industries (regular cutlery, dishwashers) need to adapt a little. There might be a little pain or cost. Highly optimized workflows (eg McDonald's) a little more.
Generally, this is not that disruptive. Industry could adapt in 6 months, 18 months comfortably. Anything over two years is pointless.
No businesses will even think about this until 2028. Why bother with a tiny change 12 years from now. It may not even come to pass.
Generally, I don't like long lead time for democratic considerations. It makes accountability worse, and encourages political shenanigans. Decision makers should be there when their decisions take effect.
