Canada Commercial Greenhouse Market Overview, 2029

Canada's agricultural landscape is characterized by a diverse range of crops, including grains, oilseeds, fruits, and vegetables, supported by a growing population that increasingly demands local produce. The country is one of the world's largest agricultural producers and exporters, with significant contributions from the Prairies, Quebec, and Southern Ontario. Canadian farmers are adapting to challenges such as climate change and market fluctuations by adopting innovative practices like precision agriculture and regenerative farming. These methods enhance yield production while promoting sustainability. In recent years, there has been a notable shift towards greenhouse cultivation, particularly in urban areas where space is limited. This trend is driven by the need for fresh produce year-round and the ability to control growing conditions more effectively. As a result, greenhouse production has become an integral part of Canada's agricultural development strategy.

According to the research report, "Canada Commercial Greenhouse Market Outlook, 2029," published by Bonafide Research, the Canada Commercial Greenhouse market is anticipated to add to more than USD 1.69 Billion by 2024–29.The growth of commercial greenhouses in Canada is fueled by several factors, including technological advancements and a heightened focus on sustainability. With the increasing adoption of precision agriculture technologies, farmers can optimize resource use and improve crop yields significantly. Urbanization has also spurred interest in vertical farming and greenhouse operations within cities, reducing transportation costs and ensuring food security. Additionally, government initiatives aimed at enhancing food production capabilities have provided support for greenhouse investments. As consumer preferences shift towards locally sourced and sustainably grown food, the commercial greenhouse sector is poised for continued expansion. This growth not only addresses the demand for fresh produce but also aligns with Canada's broader goals of reducing greenhouse gas emissions and fostering sustainable agricultural practices.

In the Canada commercial greenhouse market, the greenhouse type segment is dominated by two main categories: glass greenhouses and plastic greenhouses. Glass greenhouses, being the oldest and most common glazing material, allow maximum sunlight transmission, making them ideal for year -round crop production. However, they are more expensive and require more maintenance compared to plastic greenhouses. On the other hand, plastic greenhouses are more affordable, lightweight, and easier to install, making them a popular choice among Canadian growers. According to the market trends, plastic greenhouses are leading the market due to their cost-effectiveness and versatility. The plastic greenhouse segment is expected to dominate the market during the forecast period, driven by the increasing demand for affordable and efficient greenhouse solutions. In Canada, the plastic greenhouse market is expected to grow significantly, driven by the rising demand for fresh produce and the need for sustainable agricultural practices.

In the context of the Canada commercial greenhouse market, the by technology segment is primarily divided into Cooling Systems, Heating Systems, and Others. Among these, Heating Systems are currently leading due to their critical role in maintaining optimal temperatures during the colder months, which is essential for crop growth and productivity. The harsh Canadian climate necessitates effective heating solutions, such as hydronic heating and gas-fired systems, which ensure that greenhouses can operate year-round. According to recent market analyses, the demand for advanced heating technologies has surged, driven by the need for energy efficiency and sustainability. Additionally, the integration of smart technologies in heating systems allows for better temperature control and reduced energy consumption, further enhancing their appeal. Conversely, Cooling Systems are also vital, especially during the summer months, employing technologies like evaporative cooling and ventilation to manage heat levels.

COVID-19 Impacts:
The commercial environment greenhouse business is not exempt from the ongoing effects of the corona virus (COVID-19) menace in the Canada. The COVID-19 epidemic is having a detrimental effect on agriculture's whole supply chain, which has an effect on the demand for commercial greenhouses. The epidemic is causing lockdown conditions over the Canada. The supply-chain interruption has made it difficult for many producers in the greenhouse sector to ship their goods. In addition, the government of the Canada has declared a state of lockdown and ordered social isolation in an effort to stop the spread of the disease, which has caused imports and exports to be slowed down and limited. Due to their inadequate supply chains, suppliers to commercial greenhouses suffered.

The approach of the report:
This report consists of a combined approach of primary as well as secondary research. Initially, secondary research was used to get an understanding of the market and listing out the companies that are present in the market. The secondary research consists of third-party sources such as press releases, annual report of companies, analyzing the government generated reports and databases. After gathering the data from secondary sources primary research was conducted by making telephonic interviews with the leading players about how the market is functioning and then conducted trade calls with dealers and distributors of the market. Post this we have started doing primary calls to consumers by equally segmenting consumers in regional aspects, tier aspects, age group, and gender. Once we have primary data with us we have started verifying the details obtained from secondary sources.
