COVID-19 Impact Analysis
The impact of COVID-19 has affected negatively not only the distribution and sales in different products across several industries but also crushed the supply of raw materials. Many countries have been under lockdown which has effectively stopped them from trading with other countries or regions, to control its spread. The impact on logistics halted supplies from getting from places that use these raw materials where it’s available to areas that need them. This is affecting countries whose capacity to produce products has been cut in half or more resulting in a shortage of products and a potential price rise. This is overall expected to cause a price rise in products in the short run, depending on how quickly things return back to normal once the epidemic subsides.
Apparel, Footwear, and Accessories Market Dynamics
Rising demand from customers for high-quality products at affordable prices, fast fashion, improved logistics and supply chain management, growth in textile and apparel coats, seasonality, inflation rates, low-cost manufacturing centers and increase in e-commerce are creating growth opportunities for the global apparel footwear and accessories market. However, fluctuating raw material prices and fluctuating demand for products due to changes in fashion trends and seasonality may act as a challenge to the market growth.
Drivers
Ø Rapid growth due to digital marketing
Marketing online for fashion products has become more and more popular over the recent years as consumers gradually became more comfortable shopping for clothes via their computers and other handheld devices. The increase in online apparel sales stems mainly from web-only startups. A boosted exposure to e-commerce and the internet has improved the fashion consciousness of customers. Consumers are better able to access high-end brand clothing, as well as limited edition products. Having influencers marketing these products is also responsible for a jump in sales, but it is still unknown how much impact they are having on this marketplace specifically. With 71% of social media marketers reporting that they have an influencer marketing budget, it seems as though influencer marketing has become a tactic that marketers find valuable, especially when trying to promote fashion products online.
Restraint:
- Fast fashion trends and fluctuating costs
Changes in consumer spending and lifestyles, unfavorable weather conditions, rising labor, and material costs, and fluctuating raw material prices are some of the major restraints to the growth of this market. Moreover, fluctuating demand for products due to changes in fashion trends and seasonality may also act as a challenge to the market growth of apparel, footwear, and accessories.
