Global Sports Equipment Market 2012-2016 with Amer Sports Corp., Callaway Golf Co., and Nike Inc Leading the Way


Dublin, Sept. 23, 2013 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Research and Markets (http://www.researchandmarkets.com/research/7rkkvs/global_sports) has announced the addition of the "Global Sports Equipment Market 2012-2016" report to their offering.

The analysts forecast the Global Sports Equipment market to grow at a CAGR of 2.38 percent over the period 2012-2016. One of the key factors contributing to this market growth is the increasing participation in sporting activities. The Global Sports Equipment market has also been witnessing the increasing use of carbon fiber in sports equipment. However, the increasing availability of counterfeit products could pose a challenge to the growth of this market.

The key vendors dominating this space include Adidas AG, Amer Sports Corp., Callaway Golf Co., and Nike Inc.

The other vendors mentioned in this report are ASICS Corp., Billabong International Ltd., Cabela's Inc., Daiwa Seiko Corp., Dunlop Sports Group Americas Inc., Fortune Brands Inc., GLOBERIDE Inc., Jarden Corp., JJB Sports plc, Mizuno Corp., Puma SE, Sports Direct International plc, The Forzani Group Ltd., and Yonex Co. Ltd.

Commenting on the report, an analyst from the team said: The demand for lightweight sports equipment is increasing worldwide because it provides high performance due to their excellent stiffness and high strength. Furthermore, lightweight sports equipment gives ample control and flexibility. For instance, Terra Nova Equipment Ltd. has recently launched the world's lightest tents, which are becoming very popular among mountaineers. Thus, these factors are creating demand for lightweight sports equipment, which in turn is expected to contribute revenue and help the market grow during the forecast period.

According to the report, one of the main drivers is the rise in disposable income levels and living standards. The increase in per capita income, especially in developing countries has led to an increase in the demand for sports equipment worldwide.
