COVID-19 IMPACT

"Market Growth Restrained by Pandemic due to Supply Chain Disruptions"

The global COVID-19 pandemic has been unprecedented and staggering, with the market experiencing lower-than-anticipated demand across all regions compared to pre-pandemic levels. The sudden market growth reflected by the rise in CAGR is attributable to market’s growth and demand returning to pre-pandemic levels.

The outbreak of Covid-19 has forced many parts of the world to go into rapid lockdown to prevent the spread of the virus, causing the rapid closure of factories, shops and other businesses. The global market for non-essential products has suffered from a rapid reduction in supply and demand and travel restrictions. The pandemic had a significant negative impact on the economy due to reduced workload, demand and shortage of factory workers. In addition, the travel ban caused a shortage of raw materials and halted production. The shutdown first affected outdoor activities and training classes. As a result, sales of hydration belts were expected to decline and remain low until things return to normal. People made their shopping habits unnecessarily essential, which further slowed down the market and growth.

Despite their apparent simplicity, fluid packs can be difficult to install and clean after use. Users must remove clothing, unclog bags, wash luggage after filling with water, and use cleaning tablets to access the tank. The latest version and its delicate plastic parts can eventually break and leak under harsh conditions. The opaque nature of military hydration products may make them difficult to commercialize in the future, making it difficult to expand hydration backpacks.
