Rising disposable income, retiring baby boomers and increasing home investment are projected to continue to support spending in the BBQ and Outdoor Cooking Stores industry over the next five years into 2026. During the same time period, rising consumer confidence and per capita disposable income will drive many consumers to invest in upkeep for their homes and yards, including their outdoor kitchens and grills.

The BBQ and Outdoor Cooking Stores industry has been rekindled the last five years preceding 2021. Rising per capita disposable income and leisure time have revived discretionary purchases on outdoor cooking equipment such as barbecues (BBQs), smokers and related accessories. As the economy improves, consumers are more likely to purchase new equipment to replace the aging equipment that they already own, or purchase secondhand items. Equipment that this industry sells tends to have a relatively long lifespan but is susceptible to wear and tear, so consumers continue to replace or upgrade outdoor cooking equipment every few years. Additionally, amid the COVID-19 (coronavirus) pandemic, an increase in at-home cooking and stay-at-home orders have supported demand. Consequently, industry revenue is expected to report an annualized increase of 2.0% over the five years leading into 2021, including a surge of 9.5% in 2021 to $7.8 billion, driven by an increase in residential construction and outdoor cooking upgrades as the economy recovers.

Market Competition and Expansion:

This industry is dominated by four major companies that together account for an estimated 58.6% of industry revenue in 2021, making this industry moderately to highly concentrated. Concentration is expected to rise further over the next five years as the major players fight to increase market share through price-based competition and brand expansion. Given the fact that the industry's life cycle is in the mature phase, a higher level of merger and acquisition activity is one method of industry growth. Many large businesses have been acquiring smaller establishments as a method to grow and maintain their market share. The remaining segment of the industry is composed of small-scale players that usually only have one location and serve a small geographic region.
