We already told you about it last year, the land construction market padel also suffered from side effects of the health crisis that we are all experiencing.

Since the pandemic and the various deconfinements, the padel has been the fastest growing sport in the world.

From there the pitches sold like hot cakes but unfortunately for the clubs, given the saturation of demand and the soaring costs of raw materials, prices have increased considerably.

To this, there were also delays in delivery, not only in the sector of padel but also in other areas (furniture, computer equipment, etc.).

A price spike

The year 2022 will not get better economically speaking. In fact, for the past few months, we have been experiencing a price increase, whether in the professional or in the private sector.

After a shortage of raw materials over the whole of last year, global demand still does not weaken, which leads to considerable delays in manufacturing and deliveries.

Manufacturers are therefore obliged to raise their prices every month. They have to deal with more than problematic factors such as fuel inflation, COVID restrictions, lack of staff at logistics providers and factories, but also the shortage of drivers at carriers.

Nearly 30% inflation in the padel

Le padel unfortunately no exception to the rule. In just one year the land has been priced at nearly 30% inflation. It's simply amazing.

Estimates take two weeks to a month because the prices of raw materials also change monthly. All companies in the sector, linked to the construction of football clubs padel, find despite themselves this soaring price.

An outbreak that is not about to stop to the point where many manufacturers, for example, can no longer offer valid quotes for periods of more than one month. If it was just that...

The banks are also slowing down certain projects because, given the sums generated to open a club with increasingly expensive land, the latter are much more reluctant than before to finance entrepreneurs.

A complicated period therefore but which we hope will only be temporary. If you want to take advantage of the best prices and the best quality in terms of padel, feel free to take a look in our manufacturer directories !
