Growing Consumer Inclination Toward Water Activities

The importance of sports activities, especially for health reasons, and the increasing number of international sports events are encouraging the involvement of people in sports and recreational activities.

Asia-Pacific Holds a Prominent Share

The Asia-Pacific region is expected to experience a higher growth rate than the other regions during the forecast period. Fast-developing economies, like India and China, show great potential in terms of demand for swimwear. For instance, the Chinese swimwear market is driven by the country's huge population that is finding a passion for water sports, as they consider swimming as the best form of physical exercise, which may help in driving strong demand for swimwear products in China.
