Manufacturing of Urban Juve's hand sanitizer is scheduled to begin at the end of April and shipping is expected to commence in May or June 2020. Initially, Urban Juve intends to sell its hand sanitizer spray through its e-commerce platform at urbanjuve.com to Canadian consumers. It also plans to donate some of its hand sanitizers to health care workers on the front lines.
"So far we have received tremendous interest from Canadian retail stores for our hand sanitizer products," says Penny White, Yield Growth CEO. "Our next step is to register our products for sale in the United States."
As previously announced, Urban Juve recently received Health Canada approvals for both its hand sanitizer liquid spray and its hand sanitizer gel. Urban Juve also plans to register its hand sanitizer products with the FDA (Food and Drug Administration) for sale in the U.S.
According to Arizton's recent research report, Hand Sanitizer Market - Global Outlook and Forecast 2020-2025, the hand sanitizer market is expected to reach over $11 billion in 2020, registering year over year growth of over 600%.
