Trailer and caravan dealers benefited from a surge in domestic travel following the COVID-19 outbreak. A climb in real household discretionary income under international travel restrictions encouraged more consumers to buy trailers and caravans for domestic leisure. Caravanning and camping have gained popularity, especially among younger demographics, as they’re more accessible than overseas holidays. However, pandemic-related global supply chain disruptions have challenged trailer and caravan dealers with supply shortages and delivery delays, which has constrained this industry’s revenue growth in recent years. Overall, revenue has dropped by an anticipated 0.4% to $3.3 billion through the end of 2024-25.
Industry revenue has declined at a CAGR of 0.4 % over the past five years, to reach an estimated $3.3bn in 2024.
Market size is projected to grow over the next five years.
