Russians' penises have become a problem for condom manufacturers
Against the backdrop of sanctions and reorientation to other procurement markets, Russian condom manufacturers encountered unexpected problems, Baza found out . Difficulties arose due to the discrepancy between the average sizes of penises, which, according to journalists, among residents of Southeast Asia (where the necessary preparations are purchased) are smaller than among Russians.
Previously, blanks were bought in Europe, but now the need to make them to order has led to an increase in the cost and production time in Russia , which by the beginning of 2024 may lead to an increase in the price of the final product on the market, sources of the Telegram channel claim.
At the same time, those Russian manufacturers who make their own uniforms and purchase liquid latex in Malaysia are also going to raise prices by 10-15 percent due to rising logistics costs, journalists shared.
With the beginning of the wave of sanctions, Russians rushed to buy many types of products, including condoms, the demand for which increased by about a quarter in March last year. True, the rush of demand soon gave way to a cooling and it turned out that in general, in 2022, these products turned out to be more of a cost savings item - by September, condom sales decreased by 16.4 percent compared to the previous year.
