The increasing volume of residential construction activities is expected to propel the growth of the landscaping and gardening franchises market going forward. Residential construction activities involve the planning, development, and renovation of housing units such as individual homes, apartments, and residential complexes. The expansion of residential construction activities is primarily contributing to rapid urbanization, as growing populations increasingly migrate to urban areas in search of employment opportunities and improved living standards, thereby driving higher demand for housing infrastructure and residential development. Landscaping and gardening franchises are supporting residential construction activities by enhancing the aesthetic appeal and livability of newly developed housing projects through structured outdoor space design, including green landscapes, lawns, and functional garden installations. For instance, in March 2023, according to the Australian Bureau of Statistics, an Australia-based government administration, the number of dwellings under construction in the March quarter of 2023 rose to 240,813 from 240,156 in 2022. Therefore, the rising volume of residential construction activities is contributing to and propelling the growth of the landscaping and gardening franchises market.
