In April 2020, the global consumer confidence index of ** countries worldwide dropped to **** following the outbreak of the COVID-19 pandemic. It then slowly increased until July 2021, when it reached an index score of ****. Global consumer confidence dropped in the latter half of 2022 following rising inflation rates, but has been increasing since November that year.

Canadian laboratories have performed quite poorly during the current period because of significant volatility. COVID-19 reduced corporate profit and nonresidential construction, constraining downstream demand for laboratory testing and causing revenue to plummet in 2020. Business partially bounced back amid the pandemic recovery, but revenue was partially constrained by low research and development (R&D) expenditure. Over the past few years, interest rates have soared as the Bank of Canada has sought to reduce inflation. This has caused consumer confidence and corporate profit to plunge, causing revenue to turn south again and constraining profit for providers. Increased regulation across several downstream markets has driven laboratory testing demand despite these challenges. For instance, greater environmental concerns have led to more comprehensive air quality standards. Volatile oil prices have fostered major shifts in revenue during the current period. Energy testing, which represents the second-largest revenue segment and encompasses gas analysis and oil sand solutions, initially declined because of decreased exploration and investment resulting from low oil prices during COVID-19. Improving energy prices and the broader economic recovery helped raise demand from this sector, benefiting relevant players. Overall, revenue for laboratory testing companies in Canada is expected to plunge at a CAGR of 3.2% during the current period, reaching $CA2.3 billion in 2024. This includes a 3.5% increase in revenue in that year. Economic growth will bolster Canadian laboratory testing performance during the outlook period. The steady expansion of Canada’s GDP will stimulate the development of new products and their associated laboratory testing needs to ensure safety and quality. Concerns regarding health and safety will remain important to consumers, fuelling the need for more comprehensive regulation, particularly in the oil and gas industry. Overall, revenue for laboratory testing companies in Canada is forecast to expand at a CAGR of 2.4% during the outlook period, reaching $CA2.6 billion in 2029.

Janitorial service companies in Canada have been navigating a turbulent period marked by economic fluctuations and evolving market demands. Initially, as nonresidential construction suffered a decrease during COVID-19 due to social distancing measures and closed offices, commercial demand for janitorial services waned. However, an upswing in residential construction, driven by low interest rates, somewhat offset these losses, preventing a dramatic dip in revenue during the pandemic's height. After the initial pandemic-induced revenue drop, the industry’s fortunes were revived in 2021 and 2022 as corporate profit surged. However, this momentum was soon stymied by supply chain disruptions and rising inflation, which increased operating costs and cut into companies’ incomes. The industry's trajectory further stalled as the negative impact of high interest rates chilled residential construction and a resultant decline in consumer spending due to recessionary fears further contracted demand for commercial cleaning services. Since these developments reduced revenue in 2023 and 2024, profit’s revenue share has declined over the past few years. Overall, revenue for janitorial service companies in Canada has crept downward at a CAGR of 1.1% over the past five years, reaching $CA7.9 billion in 2025. This includes a 2.1% increase in revenue in that year. Looking forward, providers are poised to leverage an optimistic economic outlook despite potential hurdles due to changes in US policy. Anticipated reductions in interest rates by the Bank of Canada could boost both residential and nonresidential construction, consequently revitalizing demand for cleaning services. With economic growth expected to increase GDP and per capita disposable income, this should fuel consumer spending, leading to greater corporate profit and, therefore, more investment in the industry’s services. In response, companies are likely to diversify their offerings, focusing on niche areas like green cleaning initiatives, as consumer sentiment towards climate change shifts. Technological advancements such as AI and robotics are also expected to reshape how services are delivered, enhancing efficiency but potentially sidelining smaller providers unable to keep pace. Overall, revenue for janitorial services providers in Canada is forecast to expand at a CAGR of 2.6% over the next five years, reaching $CA9.0 billion in 2030.

Keeping the lights on across industries and geographies, the electrician industry in Canada is a key component of the economy at large. With demand dispersed among many downstream construction markets, industry revenue is expected to have declined at a CAGR of 3.2% to $29.8 billion through the end of 2025, including an expected growth of 2.7% in 2025 alone as along with interest rate cuts and rising consumer confidence. Volatile costs have driven down average industry profit over the last five years. Over the past five years, electricians in Canada have dealt with fluctuating interest rates, and construction materials cost inflation, which has had varying impacts on downstream residential and nonresidential construction markets. At the height of the pandemic, demand from nonresidential construction wavered as economic activity was broadly disrupted. While demand from nonresidential construction returned as the economy reopened, residential demand fell as interest rates rose. While the Bank of Canada began cutting rates in 2024 and have continued to do so into 2025, they are still relatively high and have kept residential construction activity from reaching height seen earlier in the current period. As residential construction consistently accounts for over 60.0% of industry revenue, the electrical industry has yet to reach the heights it saw in 2020. Industry performance is expected to improve in the coming years. The value of nonresidential construction will continue to recover, supporting the industry. As interest rates continue to fall and consumer sentiment improves, demand from residential construction is set to return to growth. Surging immigration will add to the already significant demand for housing. Still, electrical contractors will continue to struggle with high costs (possibly exacerbated by a looming trade war with the US) and labour shortages. Overall, industry revenue is expected to climb at a CAGR of 2.2% to reach $33.3 billion in 2030.
