Impact of COVID-19 on the Spiral Mixer Market

The closure of bakery industries and food service outlets has significantly lowered the demand for spiral mixers, negatively impacting the global spiral mixer market growth.

• According to the National Restaurant Association (NRA), 1 in 6 U.S.-based restaurants closed due to the stringent COVID-19-related lockdown restrictions in 2020.

Furthermore, limited accessibility of equipment, tools, and accessories required in producing spiral and planetary mixers due to the COVID-19-related trade restrictions has negatively impacted the product supply rate across many countries globally. However, the increased trend of producing homemade bakery products among households during the COVID-19 pandemic has supported product consumption worldwide.
