Covid-19 Impacts: The COVID-19 pandemic has had a significant impact on the global helmet market, affecting both supply and demand. The pandemic has disrupted the supply chain of helmet manufacturers, with many facing challenges in sourcing raw materials and components due to factory shutdowns, transportation disruptions, and other related issues. This has led to delays in production and delivery of helmets, as well as higher costs for manufacturers. The pandemic has also led to a decline in demand for helmets, particularly in the motorcycle and bicycle segments, due to restrictions on travel and outdoor activities. This has resulted in reduced sales and revenue for helmet manufacturers and retailers. However, the pandemic has also led to a shift in consumer behaviour, with more people opting for online shopping and e-commerce platforms instead of in-person shopping. This has prompted helmet manufacturers and retailers to invest more in their online sales channels to reach customers. In some regions, the pandemic has led to changes in government regulations regarding the use of helmets. For example, some cities have implemented mandatory helmet-wearing policies for bicyclists to encourage social distancing and reduce the risk of accidents.
