KEY FINDINGS

COVID-19 IMPACT

Supply Chain Disruptions to Hinder Market Growth

There is no doubt that the epidemic has been difficult for companies in the consumer goods sector in some way. According to Institute for supply management data, supply chain disruptions have popped up all over the world, forcing organizations to decrease revenue targets by an average. Several industries, such as domestic cleaning and frozen food, have enjoyed rises in consumer demand and have faced the mainly positive challenge of maintaining supply. Some, on the other hand, have experienced abrupt decreases in sales and significantly reduced foot traffic in retail outlets. Most of this is due to COVID-19's hastened transition to a mostly online environment. Businesses have to adapt their product offerings and implement digital-first strategies.

Instead of throwing these away, simply wash and dry them with your baby's clothes. Not only would reusing your pads help the environment, but it will also help your skin and save you money. Washable nursing pads are significantly less expensive. If you have more children in the future, you already have nursing pads that are long-lasting.

The offline sale allows consumers to physically feel and inspect the quality of products, increasing their purchasing power and increasing demand for these products among other consumers. Online sales are expected to grow at a significant rate over the forecast period due to various benefits associated with this mode of transaction such as convenience, accessibility, ease of payment options, and order tracking information that can be viewed from a smartphone or computer screen without having to contact customer service representatives.

Lower Cost When Compared to Disposables to Provide Impetus to the Market

Organic cotton nursing pads are manufactured entirely of organic cotton and contain no hazardous chemicals. These products have various advantages over standard disposables, including the capacity to be reused multiple times, lower cost when compared to disposables, and the ability to be composted after use.

RESTRAINING FACTORS

Lack of Air Movement to Impede Market Expansion

The reusable pads are not available in discredited sanitary bags; thus, they need to be kept in a safe and dry environment before use while traveling or being outdoors. They are comparatively thick and less absorbent than the disposable breast pads. Because of the lack of air movement, these pads are not breathable. Disposable Breast Pads are relatively costly.
