Duplicity Poses Significant Challenge for Big Corporations

Despite the strong market drivers, the global socks market is likely to face some tough challenges. The growing trend of wearing open footwear is expected to hamper socks sales in the near future. Furthermore, lack of awareness about wearing socks, especially in the rural parts of several developing countries is also likely to adversely impact the overall market. Rapid entry of local players in the global socks market has also created a threat of duplicity of well-known brands, which is likely to eat into profits of the bigger corporations.
