Trailer and caravan dealers benefited from a surge in domestic travel following the pandemic. A climb in real household discretionary income under international travel restrictions encouraged more consumers to buy trailers and caravans for domestic leisure. Caravanning and camping have gained popularity, especially among younger demographics, as they’re more accessible than overseas holidays. However, pandemic-related global supply chain disruptions have challenged trailer and caravan dealers with supply shortages and delivery delays, which has constrained revenue growth in recent years. More recently, consumers have been tightening spending on discretionary purchases, including trailers and caravans. While this trend is driving consumers towards domestic travel, dealers face challenges in selling trailers and caravans as consumers have various leisure and holiday options. Overall, revenue has dropped by an annualised 0.4% to $3.3 billion through the end of 2024-25.
