The spring breeze is not dry and the sun is just right. As the weather warms up, more and more people are camping in spring. Tents, canopies, lawns, food, pets, and a few friends have become the "standard configuration" for people to get close to nature. At the same time, camping equipment in shopping malls and outdoor goods stores has been quietly placed in the center, and tents in parks and camps have begun to gather, and the hot camping season has begun again.
In recent days, reporters have visited many campsites, and colorful tents are dotted on the green grass, like a beautiful painting. Tourists either sit outside the tents, enjoying a leisurely time; or play with their children on the grass, laughter comes one after another. Due to the surge in passenger flow, many campsites have tight parking spaces, "hard to find one".
A staff member of the car theme park said that there are a lot of people coming to camp recently, especially on weekends and holidays with good weather, campers gather together, and even parking spaces cannot be found during peak hours, so they can only wait slowly.
The start of the camping season has also boosted the sales of camping equipment. Many outdoor equipment stores have put camping equipment in the "C" position.
At the Times Snail Outdoor Camping Affordable Quick Purchase Warehouse Store, from tents to barbecue grills to folding chairs, all kinds of camping necessities are available at affordable prices.
The factory feels the surge in market demand particularly clearly. Mr. Xu, the person in charge of the Hunting Ant Outdoor Camping Equipment Factory, told reporters that since March, outdoor equipment has slowly entered the peak sales season. Tents, canopies, and folding chairs can be shipped 300 to 500 boxes a day, and sales have doubled compared to the previous period.
In addition, the camping equipment rental market is also very hot. Since the cost of equipping a set of camping equipment is not low, many camping "novices" or people who are unwilling to spend money to stock up equipment and have nowhere to put it at home will choose to rent.
With the rise of the camping craze, the new business format of "camping +" has also sprung up like mushrooms after rain. These new formats closely combine camping with tourism, parent-child study, etc., bringing tourists a richer and more diverse camping experience.
Industry insiders said that as the living and entertainment categories that camping can accommodate become more and more abundant, the boundaries of various types of consumption that camping can drive are increasingly expanding to various categories. With the diversity of camping scenes, different groups of people, including families and children, couples traveling, and friends gatherings, have completely different requirements for camping. Therefore, with the continuous development of camping and "camping +", it will undoubtedly release greater consumption potential. At the same time, it also creates many opportunities and space for more industries to expand into the outdoor market.
