Market Dynamics Growing Demand from Golfing Sector Drives the Global Market

Globally, golf participation has increased substantially year-over-year and is gaining in popularity. Following the 2020 pandemic, there was a significant surge in golf participation. In 2020, it is projected that the population of golf enthusiasts in the United States reached an estimated 25 million individuals. This represents a growth rate of around 2%, resulting in an increment of nearly 500,000 individuals compared to the previous year, 2019. The increasing number of public golf clubs encourages more individuals to participate. As a result, the increasing number of golfers is fueling the construction of new courses, increasing the demand for commercial lawn mowers.

Rising Demand for Robotic Lawn Mowers Creates Tremendous Opportunities

Multiple end-users' demand for convenience, effectiveness, and efficiency is propelling the exponential growth of commercial robotic lawnmowers. It is also tiresome for a single individual to mow expansive commercial properties, which is anticipated to push consumers towards robotic technology over conventional ones.

In addition, the rising labor cost in the United States and several European countries encourages deploying autonomous technology to reduce long-term expenditures. In China, the market for mechanized lawnmowers is projected to expand at a CAGR of 13.76 percent over the next five years, while in the United Arab Emirates and Australia, it is anticipated to expand at a CAGR of 8.88 percent. These factors create opportunities for robotic commercial lawn mowers.
