Also, the escalating expenditure on garden tools may boost the demand for landscaping tools worldwide during the forecast period.
North America Dominates the Market
Landscaping and lawn care is a booming business in North America. This sector is a low-cost and high-sweat-equity profession that offers immigrants and first-generation Americans a starting point and a gateway into the mainstream economy. The growth of this industry has a favorable impact on the use of landscaping tools. About 80% of the US population stays in urban areas. With the increasing environmental concerns, the people in the country are focusing on a green backyard for better quality air and recreational activities, indicating an increase in the popularity of landscaping in the country and driving the use of gardening tools.
The increasing standard of living and improved lifestyle of the Canadian urban population are two major factors forcing corporate offices to go for landscaping in their open spaces. It has been observed that a beautified office has a positive impact on its employees. Landscaping is also known to improve the value of the property. Thus, most real estate companies are spending on improving the area around the property and expanding the landscaped area in the region. Landscaping in Canada has become one of the many forms of eco-tourism. Hotels earn about USD 6-7 million annually in additional revenue from guests willing to pay extra to overlook the green space. Hence, more hotels are willing to use landscaping in and around their buildings. Therefore, policy changes, geographic and demographic suitability, and the use of advanced technology are the major factors expected to drive the market for landscaping tools in North America.
