01 Economic Growth and Increased Disposable Income Plus Hygiene Consciousness Urbanization brought on by economic expansion is a factor in the rise in demand for home care services. In 2014, 54% of people worldwide lived in urban areas. By 2050, 68% of people worldwide are estimated to reside in urban areas, according to the United Nations Department of Economic and Social Affairs, Population Division. The most urbanized regions, with significant populations of consumers and a corporate lifestyle, are North America, Latin America, and Europe. Furthermore, it is anticipated that the shift of consumers into metropolitan regions will raise the demand for home care services.The home care services market is also expected to be driven by a rise in disposable income among Asia Pacific’s enormous population. For instance, China's disposable income climbed rapidly, reaching USD 4,615 million in 2015, according to the National Bureau of Statistics of China. The disposable income was estimated at USD 4,267 million in prior years.India's disposable income climbed to USD 21,77,505 million in 2015 from USD 20,15,006 million in 2014, according to the Ministry of Statistics and Program Implementation (MOSPI). This was the most significant recorded level of disposable income. As a result, there is much room for innovation in the home care services sector, and investors are likely to change their priorities to increase their market share in these nations.
01 Competitive Environment The world's developed regions face intense competition in the market for home care services. The market study indicates that the US janitorial services market is fragmented, with the top 50 companies accounting for 30% of total revenue. While small businesses compete effectively in local marketplaces, particularly for small companies and household clients, large corporations have a strong market position thanks to their many locations supplying customers.ABM Industries Inc. and The Service Master Company, LLC, two significant players, produced revenue of USD 4,898 million and USD 2,594 million in 2015, accounting for over 15% of the total worldwide revenue and fiercely competing with smaller businesses. As a result, it limits the growth of small and medium-sized companies that want to compete in the market.
01 The Growth in Working Women Percentage Millions of women previously dependent on men are now in charge of their financial situations. The availability of higher education improved women's employment opportunities. Changing their role models from housewives to successful professional women has increased their value in the employment market. Around 62% of women in the United States are self-employed, per the OECD Employment and Labor Market Statistics. Between the ages of 20 and 64, part-time employment climbed gradually, from 16.5% in 2005 to 19% in 2015. Most women working are found in nations like Denmark, the Netherlands, Iceland, Norway, and Sweden.Around 80% of dual-income households employ an outside cleaning service for their homes, which includes wiping and cleaning cupboards, appliances, tables, chairs, and other home decorations, dusting walls, ceilings, furniture, baseboards, window sills, and railings. Furthermore, as stated in the US Department of Labor report, the proportion of dual-income households in North America increased from 1996 to 2006, reaching 31%.According to statistics produced by Statistics Canada, the proportion of families with two earners has increased dramatically over the past 40 years, nearly doubling. This significantly impacts market expansion and creates dozens of new prospects.
