In terms of the market size of sleep promotion in China and the functional distribution of health foods approved in China in 2018, the proportion of relieving physical fatigue (10.9 per cent) and improving sleep (2.8 per cent) is still too small, with serious supply and demand asymmetry, and the sleep scene is worth digging.

The trend of promoting the expansion of sleep market capacity is obvious. In the first quarter of 2019, the sales volume was 95 million yuan , and the market size increased by more than three times. 2020 and 2021 are periods of rapid development to promote the sleep market, with year-on-year growth rates of over 60% in the first half of 2020 and over 40% in the first half of 21.

Taobao platform is full of a large number of purchasing merchants, the cause of the epidemic situation led to the domestic port logistics blocked, the epidemic situation of serious national logistics directly cut off.
