Demand for suitcases, backpacks doubles in Russia
Russians began to buy suitcases and backpacks much more often in late September to early October.
Demand for these products doubled in this time, according to a study of the payment service for online stores CloudPayments, Lenta.ru writes.
The demand for backpacks, bags and suitcases in the online sales category increased by 102 per cent during the study period. The average amount of online purchases increased by 34 per cent. Analysts note that roomy suitcases and travel bags, tactical and tourist backpacks were popular at that time.
According to experts, the increase in the average check can be explained by the fact that within one transaction people began to buy more units of goods. Another reason is the rise in prices due to a sharp increase in demand and a possible shortage of goods.
The study was conducted by CloudPayments based on online purchase data from September 21 to October 11, 2022 compared to August 31 to September 20, 2022.
