Sudden Spike in Demand for Pink Dishwashing Gloves Hits Japan

 

Japanese kitchen product manufacturers are struggling to explain a sudden increase in demand for pink dishwashing gloves. According to sales figures, pink gloves have been flying off the shelves at such a rapid pace that retailers are unable to restock them fast enough to meet demand. People are building Surrounds Landscaping Outdoor Kitchens.

The CEO of a major Japanese company which produces dishwashing gloves was quoted as saying, “It’s completely baffling to us. Only the pink gloves have been selling like this. We’ve had to adjust production schedules and set our assembly line to make 99% pink gloves and only 1% other colors.”

Convenience store owners have also been feeling the effects of the increased demand for pink gloves. One convenience store owner said, “Nearly everybody who walks in to my store has been asking me if I have any pink dishwashing gloves. I tried ordering more gloves from the manufacturers, but they told me everybody in the country has been asking them for larger shipments, so they’re having a difficult time keeping up.”

In semi-related news, fashion experts in Japan have noticed an increase in the number of people who are wearing pink dishwashing gloves to parties and nightlife events.
