Industry Analysis:
Overview
Many companies have been impacted by shelter-in-place orders and physical barriers imposed in response to the worldwide COVID-19 outbreak. Here’s how the campground and RV park sector has been affected. When the National Park Service ordered park closures throughout the country during the early stages of the COVID-19 outbreak, campsites and RV parks that depend on national park visitation for income were hit hard. According to the 2020 North American Camping Report by KOA, the decline in outdoor activity is expected to be short-lived as both regular campers and non-campers exhibit interest in camping once restrictions are relaxed. Indeed, many individuals have become more interested in outdoor leisure as a result of the epidemic, leading to an increase in camping and other outdoor activities. In addition, when compared to other forms of lodging, such as hotels, RV camping may be the safest mode of travel. COVID-19 is, in fact, generating a boom in the RV market, with shipments up 54% in July compared to the same month last year. As they get older and become more family and health-conscious, many individuals in the baby boomer age are expected to join leisure clubs or utilize camping and recreation facilities in their areas. Patrons of campers and leisure centers, on the other hand, are expected to switch from pricey all-inclusive clubs to less expensive campgrounds and recreation centers. The tendency in the campground and RV park sector is that if a facility is well-equipped and located near a residential area or a location where people can easily reach without much stress, it will likely attract a large number of visitors.

People between the ages of 35 and 54 have often hit their peak earning potential, resulting in greater disposable cash and extra time for travel. People aged 55 and over presently make up the smallest group, but according to IBISWorld, they will become the industry’s fastest expanding section. Almost 10%
