SFIA Releases COVID-19 Industry Impact Report for June 2020
SFIA has been conducting a monthly survey, collecting information from the sports & fitness industry regarding the impact of the COVID-19 pandemic. SFIA has released the 3rd edition of the report (June 2020). As we continue to gather information, each report further reflects the financial standing and opinions from the industry throughout the pandemic. The survey polls industry-wide businesses, with subjects ranging from financial impact to response to return to play projections.
According to the June 2020 Report, 72% of companies believe that they will not return to some semblance of pre-COVID-19 projections until 2021 or later. To access the full June 2020 COVID-19 Industry Impact Report click here.
