Middle East & Africa Yoga Accessories Market Research Report, 2027

For a long time, yoga was not seen as acceptable in the conservative Islamic kingdom. Because yoga was primarily considered a Hindu practice, yoga was not allowed in Saudi Arabia for decades. Extremists challenged the notion that yoga was incompatible with Islamic practices. The market got a boost when yoga received formal recognition as a sporting activity in November 2017. This has allayed the misplaced fears among many in the Arab and the Muslim World that the practice of Yoga was incompatible with Islamic beliefs and gave confidence to several Muslim Yoga practitioners around the world. According to the report, “Middle East & Africa Yoga Accessories Market Research Report, 2027” published by Actual Market Research, the market witnessed over 1 Billion difference in revenue share from 2016 to 2027. Further, the market is anticipated to grow with more than 12% CAGR during the forecast period. The past year, especially the months under the shadow of the Covid pandemic have led to increased awareness about personal health. Residents of the region have started investing in wearable devices, fitness apps, and telemedicine services to keep track of the wellbeing of their bodies and mind. The yoga clothing segment wasn’t able to make for much of the market share given the region’s clothing restrictions and beliefs. The online sales segment in the region dominated because of the lack of awareness and the availability of these products through the local vendors. The online segment accounted for more than 65% of the region’s share. The key is to have flexibility within a structured, data-driven process. Some players have driven growth by broadening their delivery assortment. Against this, the offline sales channel segment is to grow with a growth rate of more than 11%. 47 Islamic nations among the 177 countries of the United Nations General Assembly (UNGA) officially co-sponsored with India, a resolution to establish the International Day of Yoga. Afghanistan, Bangladesh, Turkey, Iran, Indonesia, UAE, Qatar, and Oman were among the Islamic nations that co-sponsored the UN resolution. Arab countries have begun to practice yoga, most specifically in Saudi Arabia and Egypt. In 2010, the formation of the Arab Yoga Foundation provided a platform for Yoga enthusiasts to practice Yoga and remain connected. South Africa is expected to be dominating the region with the highest share by the end of the forecasted period.
