Increased raw material prices pose challenges to the hosier industry. Growing consumer awareness of the quality and price of different products as a result of increasing access to various retail formats and online platforms gives consumers a choice of alternatives. Furthermore, increasing consumer demand for high-quality products at cheaper prices is expected to pose challenges for hosiery manufacturers. Increased raw material prices are lowering producers ‘ profit margins. Moreover, intense competition between global and regional players restricts hosiery manufacturers to raise prices for their products, which in turn restricts new investment in expanding the production capacity of hosiery products.

The market is highly fragmented by nature. The presence of large well-established and regional producers makes the market highly competitive. They compete on the basis of product differentiation and price differentiation. Some of the major players on the market are Hanesbrands, Golden Lady, Gilden Activewear, CSP International, Tefron and Wolford AG, among others.
