This market has evolved significantly over the past few decades, reflecting broader changes in societal attitudes toward nature, leisure, and adventure. Once primarily the domain of rugged outdoor enthusiasts, camping has gradually become a mainstream activity a diverse population enjoys. This expansion in the market has been driven by a confluence of factors, including growing environmental awareness, the pursuit of wellness and mental health, advancements in outdoor gear technology, and the increasing accessibility of natural spaces through government and private sector investments.
A key factor driving growth in this market is the growing recognition of the mental and physical health benefits of spending time outdoors where digital connectivity often dominates daily life, many people are going camping to disconnect from technology and reconnect with nature. This trend has been particularly pronounced after the COVID-19 pandemic, which prompted a revaluation of lifestyle choices and priorities. As travel restrictions and social distancing measures made traditional vacations less feasible, camping emerged as a safe and accessible alternative.
In Canada, the rising demand for this equipment is closely linked to the country’s strong focus on promoting eco-tourism and outdoor recreation. Parks Canada, the federal agency that oversees national parks, reported a notable surge in visits, with more than 24 million people exploring national parks and historic sites in 2022. The Canadian government’s promotion of eco-friendly travel options and its extensive network of protected areas have made camping popular among domestic and international tourists. This focus on sustainable tourism has led to a higher demand for eco-friendly camping gear, such as biodegradable products and solar-powered accessories, contributing to the growth of the camping equipment market in Canada.
Together, these factors have created a robust and dynamic market for camping gear in North America, with each nation contributing to the region’s overall growth in distinct ways.
