One of the major factors driving the demand for smoker covers is the increase in the number of hotels and restaurants. Key manufacturers invest heavily in R&D to provide improved products to their customers and compete with competitors and rival products. To attract customers, key players have introduced new innovative products into the market, boosting the growth of the smoker cover market. Furthermore, the trend of outings and outdoor activities such as camping and traveling has increased among young people, who prefer barbecue as a lunch or dinner option. As a result, they have begun to travel with smoker cover to cook food according to their preferences and enhance the fun of their outing. This drives the global smoker cover market expansion.
COVID-19 IMPACT
During the COVID-19 pandemic, every industry suffered a severe economic crisis. The government imposed a nationwide lockdown to control the spread of the Coronavirus, causing massive disruptions in the raw material supply chain and production cycle. The government imposed many restrictions on food industries to control the spread of COVID-19 disease, which resulted in a decline in demand for hotels and restaurants and a decrease in demand for smoker cover. Even after the government removed restrictions, people are still hesitant to visit hotels and restaurants, resulting in a significant decline in the growth of the smoker cover market.
DRIVING FACTORS
Food Truck Industry Growth will Drive the Market
Food trucks are a new and recent evolution that has grown significantly in the last few years due to the low initial investment. One of the major factors driving the demand for smoker covers is the trend of food truck parks or industries, as food trucks require small and compact barbecues to cook food in the truck. The variety of barbecue accessories has led to the widespread adoption of smoker covers in the food truck industries, fueling the market's growth. Additionally, the trend of outdoor events and parties is becoming more popular as people who enjoy cooking and want to demonstrate their skills use barbecues for cooking. The growing popularity of outdoor parties and events fuels the growth of the smoker cover market.
RESTRAINING FACTORS
Popularity of Fast Food and the High Cost of Smoker Cover to Limit Market Expansion
One factor impeding the growth of the smoker cover industry is the high popularity of quick and easy foods like fries, burgers, and other such goods. In addition, some barbeque grills weigh a tonne and are pricey and challenging to move. Furthermore, grilled food should be served immediately because it loses some flavor and texture when reheated. As a result, the product's price and the accessibility of ready-to-eat fast food are expected to limit the market growth.
SEGMENTATION
By Type
Based on type, the smoker cover market is segmented into Propane, Electric snd Others. The electric category dominated the market in 2022. The demand for barbecue grills is expected to rise due to the expanding trend of cookouts on weekends and holidays among millennials and the growing acceptance of home cooking as a hobby and leisure activity. Recently, electric smoker covers have become more well-liked and are regarded as the most healthy, readily available, and environmentally friendly cooking options. They are appropriate for various uses and come in a range of sizes, from small personal grills that fit on a countertop to enormous outdoor setups for parties and social events.
