North America Commercial Facility Landscaping Services Market: Outsourcing vs. In-House Landscaping

The North America commercial facility landscaping services market was valued at USD 54.9 billion in 2023 and is projected to grow to USD 70.35 billion by 2030, achieving a CAGR of 3.6% from 2024 to 2030. The demand for commercial landscaping services has been steadily rising as property owners increasingly value well-maintained and visually appealing outdoor spaces.

A thoughtfully designed landscape enhances a property’s aesthetic appeal and fosters an inviting environment for clients, customers, and employees. Services include lawn maintenance, tree and shrub care, irrigation system installation and repair, as well as landscape design and construction. With growing emphasis on sustainability, businesses are increasingly seeking eco-friendly and water-efficient landscaping solutions, further driving market demand.

Commercial landscaping focuses on enhancing the exterior of business units, retail centers, industrial facilities, shopping centers, hotels, and office complexes to attract and retain customers by creating appealing surroundings. As the commercial sector expands, the demand for these landscaping services is expected to increase correspondingly. According to a U.S. Census Bureau report from February 2024, the total value of commercial construction reached USD 133,194.0 million in December 2023, reflecting a 1.4% increase from December 2022. This growth in commercial construction is likely to boost demand for commercial landscaping services over the forecast period.
