Market Trends of US Lawn Mowers Industry
Petrol Land Mowers are in High Demand
Petrol lawnmowers are ideal for home or professional use. They are push-powered or self-propelled for large lawn areas due to their superior power and high-grade cutting-edge performance. They are built using rigid, professional-grade components, such as corrosion-resistant chassis and aluminum, and require low maintenance and servicing costs. Moreover, initiatives by the government are anticipated to drive the petrol lawnmower market in the coming years. For instance, in July 2022, the National Park Service distributed USD 192 million to local communities through the Outdoor Recreation Legacy Partnership (ORLP) grant program. This enabled urban communities to create new outdoor recreation spaces, reinvigorate existing parks, and form connections between people and the outdoors in economically underserved areas.
Commercial/Government Sector is the Largest End User
The market for commercial lawnmowers in the United States is expanding with the growing demand for the maintenance of commercial spaces such as golf courses, sports fields, schools, and public parks. The large number of golf courses and sports fields in the country are fueling the commercial lawnmower market growth. For instance, according to a survey by the National Golf Foundation, in 2022, there were a total of 16,000 golf courses in the United States. More than one-third of the US population over the age of 5 played golf (on-course or off-course), followed golf on television or online, read about the game, or listened to a golf-related podcast in 2022. For instance, according to the National Golf Foundation, there were a total of 119 million people who played golf in 2022, 12% up from the previous year. This increase in the number of golf players in the country fuels commercial lawnmower use. Furthermore, the government is focusing on expanding outdoor spaces in California by investing in public park improvements. In 2022, local and state leaders granted nearly USD 15 million to expand outdoor facilities. This expansion of outdoor facilities in the country is expected to increase the use of commercial lawnmowers in the coming years.
