Rising Working-class Population to Spur Demand
The rising trend of travel and tourism is expected to broaden the hospitality industry worldwide. The demand for toilet paper in restaurants, resorts, and hotels is growing rapidly on account of the increasing hygiene requirements. Apart from that, the surging working-class population will further raise the usage of this product in corporate sectors and offices. For instance, the U.S. Census Bureau’s data on Country Business Pattern revealed that the total number of establishments was 7,860,674 in 2017. It reached 7,912,405 in 2018. These factors are set to propel the toilet paper market growth in the coming years. However, the rising popularity of bidet toilets may hamper growth by limiting demand.
