Camping Equipment Market Growth Factors


Rising Government Investment towards Tours and Travel Industry to Augment the Market Growth


Travel and tourism is considered as one of the important growth driver for any economy. The strong growth in the global tourism sector since last few years has been supported by the governments of different countries by implementing several development policies for the tourism industry. Tourism sector helps to generate a huge portion of revenue in every country’s GDP and hence encouraging the government to adopt several investments towards improving the travel infrastructural facilities in their respective countries. This in turn motivates the travelers to increase their spending on the travel accessory products and hence driving the market growth. For instance, the government of India has implemented a scheme named ‘Swadesh Darshan Scheme’ which aims at encouraging theme-based tourism activities to promote and capitalize the India’s tourist prospective. In March, 2022, the Ministry of Tourism of India had financed USD 687.84 million and approved over 76 development projects in about 31 states of India.


Increasing Spending on Recreational Activities to Drive the Market Growth


In recent years, consumers are more concerned about their health and fitness which as a result increases their spending portion on travel and recreational events. Moreover, the rising disposable income of the individuals, mainly in developing nations such as India, China, Brazil, France and others has also increased the purchasing parity of the consumers in those regions and thus supporting the growth of the outdoor equipment industry. For instance, as per the data provided by the Bureau of Economic Analysis, in 2020, predictable outdoor recreation comprised for near about 37.4% of the total U.S. outdoor recreation value added, compared to 30.6% in 2019.


RESTRAINING FACTORS


High Prices of different Modes of Travelling to Hinder Market Growth


Increasing prices of travelling modes such as airline tickets, international baggage charges, and others is expected to hamper the camping equipment market growth during the forecast period.

During last few years, passenger transport costs have increased at a much higher rate along with the amplifying price trend of air travels and passenger cars. This has led to a decrease in the travelling activities and hence is projected to affect the market. For instance, as per the data provided by U.S. Bureau of Labor Statistics' latest Consumer Price Index, airlines prices in U.S. have rose by around 42.9% in September, 2022, compared 2021.
