The global wheelbarrow market was valued at $743.4 million in 2022, and is projected to reach $1.18 Billion by 2032, registering a CAGR of 4.6% from 2023 to 2032. Gardeners and construction workers use wheelbarrows as a means of conveyance to move small goods. A wheelbarrow is a hand-driven vehicle with one or more wheels that is intended to be pushed or directed by a single person using two handles at the rear of the vehicle.
Emerging markets such as Asia-Pacific, Latin America, and Africa, have witnessed a rise in population, economic growth, and urbanization. The population in Asia-Pacific and Africa has increased at a rapid pace, thus creating a surge in demand for housing accommodation. Most of the countries in these two regions are emerging nations and are experiencing strong economic growth. The progress of the economy in the emerging country fuels the growth of commercial, industrial, corporate, and residential properties. The governments of emerging countries look forward to improving the infrastructure by taking steps to improve the roadways, waterworks, sanitation, and offer positive experiences to the citizen by building parks, health centers, and community centers. For instance, the Brazilian government invested $167.3 million for 2021 for the development of the infrastructure. The growth of emerging countries has fueled the need of wheelbarrow for material handling. The rise in awareness about the benefit of wheelbarrow and increase in investment by the governments in infrastructure development are expected to drive the market growth.
In addition, due to their high strength, wheelbarrow machines are often composed of steel and plastic materials. As a result, market participants find it challenging to maintain profitability and set their budgets when steel prices fluctuate. For instance, since March 2020, the cost of hot-rolled steel in the U.S. has climbed by more than 215%, to $1,825. Prior to that, in 2017, its cost was in the $500-$800 range. In addition, metal costs have doubled since COVID-19. These swings are a key factor that limit the expansion of the wheelbarrow market.
The construction and agriculture industries have grown as a result of increased urbanization and industrialization of developing nations. In addition, the market is majorly driven by rise in demand for infrastructure and construction projects due to growth in population. Building of new infrastructure such as, roads, railways, tunnels, residential & non-residential construction, and mining, has become necessary as a result of the ongoing development of industries. Wheelbarrows make it easier to transport materials from one location to another. This increased the need for wheelbarrows, which presents a significant opportunity for the market's expansion in emerging nations.
The wheelbarrow market is segmented on the basis of wheel, application, sales channel, and region. By wheel, the market is divided into single, double, and multi. By application, the market is classified into construction, industrial, gardening, agriculture & livestock, and others. By sales channel, the market is bifurcated into online and offline. Region wise, the market is analyzed across North America (the U.S., Canada, and Mexico), Europe (the UK, France, Germany, Italy, and rest of Europe), Asia-Pacific (China, Japan, India, South Korea, and rest of Asia-Pacific), and LAMEA (Latin America, the Middle East, and Africa).
