The world may be going to shit but at least companies likes Durax are rubbing their hands together in glee. Global sales at the condom company jumped up by more than 10% over the summer months when the nationwide lockdown ended. However, since all the regional lockdowns have started popping up again the company are starting to see a flop in sales. swings and roundabouts, ey?
Laxman Narasimhan, the chief executive of the company who owns Durex, said that after a “more challenging first half of the year, relaxations of social distancing regulations resulted in improved demand for our sexual well-being products, including Durex, which saw double-digit growth in revenue”.
The company also noticed bumper sales in it’s disinfectant brands like Dettol, as well as it’s vitamin supplements and Air Wick air fresheners. So basically, we’re all just thinking about snagging and cleaning our houses?! Sounds about right. The falling birth rages due to all the condom sales is probably a good thing too, because who wants to bring a kid into this dystopian Black Mirror shit show.
