Impact of COVID-19 Pandemic on Flexible Garden Hoses Market

The flexible garden hoses market has been significantly affected by a scarcity of available workers, which has hindered production capacity. On the other side, due to wholesale market closures, manufacturers were forced to rely primarily on supermarkets and e-commerce dealers to advertise their flexible garden hoses products, which has positively affected its demand in the market. Despite the global pandemic, flexible garden hoses sales have witnessed growth. For instance, the popularity of flexible garden hoses has grown across the world due to the rising COVID-19 cases globally. Since, the pandemic has led to a strong resurgence of the gardening hobby as well as increased the awareness regarding the benefits of home garden and clean air. Gardening helps people stay physically and mentally healthy and relieves them from the stress associated with the crisis. Additionally, social distancing and home confinement during the first wave of COVID-19 outbreak were critical in helping governments flatten the infection curve but raised concerns about possible negative consequences, such as prolonged isolation or a sedentary lifestyle. In this scenario, gardening activities have been identified as a reasonable tool to reduce the mental health consequences of home confinement. 

Furthermore, with the opening of several growth markets across the globe, vaccination development, and initiatives taken by governments to support economic and industrial growth, the demand for the flexible garden hoses market is anticipated to grow at a positive pace in the coming years.

Market Insights

Rising Number of Gardening Activities Fuel Flexible Garden Hoses Market Growth

The growing interest of consumers toward gardening activities, especially amid COVID-19 crisis, is driving the demand for garden supplies, such as flexible garden hoses. Further, during the outbreak, many countries and international organizations encouraged people to enjoy and engage in gardening activities and complete their home improvement projects. Since most health organizations require individuals to self-isolate, people can still enjoy some activities without being incarcerate in their homes. For instance, in March 2020, the National Garden Bureau shared the ways gardeners can work during the pandemic. A few of these ways comprise planting a vegetable garden, redesign the trellis in front of the house, planting an herb garden, creating a new indoor plant exhibit, and taking a walk in nature as it is one activity that gardeners can enjoy while relaxing and self-isolating. In addition, in April 2020, Madison Satya Rhodes-Conway issued a statement on community gardens and COVID-19. In response to the COVID-19 pandemic, the mayor recommended that people engage in gardening on private land and community gardens because it can be a healthy outdoor activity and a necessary food source for many gardeners during the pandemic, which would further boost the demand for garden supplies, such as flexible garden hoses.

Moreover, the rising working population and growing urbanization stress amongst the people can increase the incidence of irritability, headache, stomach pain, heart attack, and worsen the preexisting condition of the body. However, in recent years, gardening has become an activity that helps relieve stress. For instance, an experiment published in the Journal of Health Psychology compared gardening to reading as a stress-relieving activity; compared with subjects who were assigned to read, subjects who were engaged in gardening had a greater reduction in stress writing, due to which people are adopting to engage themselves in gardening activities, which is also propelling the market growth. Further, gardening can also be used as a strategy to improve household food security and nutrition. Home gardens have also received a lot of attention. The number of people who grow organic food in the garden is increasing, especially in developed countries, and there may be a demand for garden supplies in the next few years, such as flexible garden hoses. Thus, the rising number of gardening activities is catalyzing the development of the flexible garden hoses market.
