The Global Suitcase And Briefcase Market size is expected to reach $50.7 billion by 2030, rising at a market growth of 6.3% CAGR during the forecast period.
The corporate landscape often embraces the practice of corporate gifting. Companies frequently provide their employees with briefcases, laptop bags, or luggage sets as a gesture of appreciation or to enhance their professional image. Therefore, the business cases segment would procure approximately 1/5th share of the market by 2030. The upswing in business activity contributes to a higher volume of corporate gifting, thereby boosting the demand for these products. Additionally, businesses seek to align their corporate identity and branding efforts by opting for customized briefcases and luggage. This inclination toward customization results in bulk orders, which support manufacturers and customization services within the market. Some of the factors impacting the market are growing urbanization in developing nations, rising disposable income and use of E-commerce, and competition from backpacks and counterfeit products.
According to the World Urbanization Prospects 2018 report from the United Nations, urban regions are home to 55% of the world's population, more than rural areas. By 2050, the proportion of the world's population living in urban areas is expected to rise to 68%. Northern America (82%), Latin America and the Caribbean (81%), Europe (74%), and Oceania (68%) were the geographical areas with the highest urbanization rates. Approximately 50% of Asia's population lived in urban areas in 2018. The rise of urbanization can encourage the development of specialized products. For instance, there may be a greater demand for compact, easily maneuverable luggage options suitable for urban travelers who frequently use public transportation systems. Additionally, with higher incomes, consumers are more inclined to seek premium and luxury luggage brands that offer superior craftsmanship, durability, and design. Luggage manufacturers have expanded their product offerings to cater to consumer preferences and travel needs. The e-commerce sector thrives, offering consumers convenient and diverse luggage options. Online retail platforms provide a wide selection of luggage and briefcase options, making it easier for consumers to explore products, compare prices, read reviews, and make informed purchases. E-commerce platforms often feature competitive pricing and promotions. Consumers with rising incomes can take advantage of discounts, special offers, and bundled deals when purchasing luggage and briefcases online. These trends will continue to drive market growth and innovation in the coming years.
However, competition from backpacks and counterfeit products poses significant challenges to the market. The rise of backpacks as a popular and versatile alternative to traditional business bags has diverted consumer preferences away from briefcases and suitcases. Backpacks are often favored for their ergonomic design, comfort, and adaptability, particularly among younger consumers and professionals. This competition has created a market environment where traditional suitcase and briefcase manufacturers must innovate to maintain relevance in the face of shifting consumer preferences. Thus, competition from backpacks and the proliferation of counterfeit products create substantial obstacles for the market.
