Impact of COVID-19 Pandemic on Flexible Garden Hoses Market

On the other side, due to wholesale market closures, manufacturers were forced to rely primarily on supermarkets and e-commerce dealers to advertise their flexible garden hoses products, which has positively affected its demand in the market. Despite the global pandemic, flexible garden hoses sales have witnessed growth. For instance, the popularity of flexible garden hoses has grown across the world due to the rising COVID-19 cases globally.

In this scenario, gardening activities have been identified as a reasonable tool to reduce the mental health consequences of home confinement.
Furthermore, with the opening of several growth markets across the globe, vaccination development, and initiatives taken by governments to support economic and industrial growth, the demand for the flexible garden hoses market is anticipated to grow at a positive pace in the coming years.
