Driving Factors

The market for luggage, increasing globalization, and economic development have led to a rise in international tourism and business travel over the past decade and have registered exponential growth in revenues over several factors. One of the primary factors is emerging economies, where middle-class household incomes are increasing, thus opening new expansion opportunities. Additionally, the market will continue its growth path, propelled by the travel and tourism sector, consumer behavior, and technological innovation. Furthermore, sustainability has become an important driver in product development and consumer decisions within the luggage sector. Moreover, companies are increasingly integrating recycled content and sustainable manufacturing processes into their products. The sector is experiencing a wave of green innovations, ranging from recycled polycarbonate cases to biodegradable products, as customers become more aware of the environmental impact. This multi-functionality has been a major factor in driving the revenue growth of the market.

 

Restraining Factors

The growing problem of online counterfeits is creating serious challenges for the growth of the global luggage industry. Moreover, with the growing penetration of the internet and e-commerce portals, spurious and replica luggage products are becoming easily accessible, which is confusing consumers and compromising the brand image of genuine manufacturers. Additionally, fake goods are almost identical replicas of genuine luggage as far as appearance and design are concerned, but are of extremely poor quality.

 

Market Segmentation

The luggage market share is classified into type, material, and distribution channels.

 

  • The travel bags segment accounted for the highest share in 2023 and is projected to grow at a substantial CAGR during the forecast period.

Based on the type, the luggage market is segmented into travel bags, business bags, casual bags, and others. Among these, the travel bags segment accounted for the highest share in 2023 and is projected to grow at a substantial CAGR during the forecast period. The growth is attributed to rising affordability and accessibility of traveling options that have motivated more individuals to visit local and global destinations, which has fueled the demand for secure travel luggage solutions. Additionally, changing travel patterns, including experiential and adventure travel, demand luggage that can be durable for various environments and activities.

 

  • The soft-sided segment accounted for a significant share in 2023 and is anticipated to grow at a remarkable CAGR during the forecast period.

Based on material, the global luggage market is divided into soft-sided and hard-sided. Among these, the soft-sided segment accounted for a significant share in 2023 and is anticipated to grow at a remarkable CAGR during the forecast period.
