Long-established brands, like Sweden’s Lelo have been surprised by the surge of interest (site traffic increased by 48%, sales by 56%). “That amount of traffic is 7.7% higher even than the recent Christmas period, which is generally our busiest trading period,” says Lelo brand manager Stuart Nugent. Czech internet sex shops are also experiencing a business boom. For example, in March the online store RuzovySlon.cz increased the sales year-on-year by 50 percent, in the first week of April even by one hundred percent.

Demand for disinfectants has increased as well, but vibrators, womanizers, vacuum balls and aphrodisiacs are leading the sales. “Masturbators for men are sold significantly more than before,” added Durčák. A similar trend was seen by City Realex, which run the Erotic City...
