A new market study published by Global Industry Analysts Inc., (GIA) the premier market research company, today released its report titled “Fashion Face Masks – Global Market Trajectory & Analytics”. The report presents fresh perspectives on opportunities and challenges in a significantly transformed post COVID-19 marketplace.
When people started gradually going back to public places, many of them need or wish to buy face masks. In Europe, for example, wearing a face mask is a new culture and understandably, the market is massive to reach these new face mask consumers. Also, many face masks are disposable, thus consumers continuously purchase these.
To reduce waste, some consumers opt for reusable fabric masks. However, to keep up the hygiene level, they need multiple masks for their washing cycle. Washing can damage these masks so the product life span is expected to be relatively short. Thus, face masks are likely to have a constant demand.

Due to Covid-19 pandemic, the demand for face masks is significantly high, which is demonstrating anyone can join the face mask movement. Japan’s burger quick-service restaurant chain DOMDOM Burger started selling its fabric face masks with company logo at their stores. It received favourable responses and sold out across its outlets. Now the company is aiming to make the face masks available online.
The case of DOMCOM Burger is especially interesting. It also indicates further marketing opportunity via face masks. Selling branded face masks will not only contribute to the sales but also can help build brand loyalty, as well as being effective advertising as the face mask purchasers display the brand logo just wearing the face mask.
