Photo Printing Market Global Industry Analysis and Forecast Till 2026

The global photo printing market revenues are forecasted to witness passive growth over 2016-2026. While growing innovation in digital print technology is expected to be a key driver for market growth, significantly rising adoption of smartphones will remain a key restraint to the demand for photo prints. U.S. is expected to retain the top market position and Asia Pacific may create attractive opportunities for digital printing businesses in the market. Though the market is passively fluid and competitive, a substantial development in the industry may result in radical alteration in the market position.

Key Drivers and Restraints for Market

Increasing use of smartphones is a key factor impacting the photo printing market. The smartphone technology that first contributed to the downsizing of the photo printing market, is predicted to pose challenges to the demand for photo prints in the forecast period as well.

The advent of technological features and functions in smartphones has enabled customised photography and easier storage in varied electronic devices. Moreover, facilitated Internet access is allowing for frequent online photo sharing without the need to print them, which is expected to continue a pessimistic impact on the photo printing industry. Photo printing businesses in the market are estimated to cater to a set of innovative printing needs of consumers, including photo books, photo albums, photo collage and magnets, photographic calendars, and similar merchandise products. Wedding albums will continue to fuel demand for photo prints, resultant of the tendency of preserving lasting memories, among worldwide population.

Emergence of new marketing businesses are also expected to positively influence the market growth, owing to their consistent digital prints demand for advertising campaigns. Over the forecast period 2016-2026, technological innovation is believed to offer better business opportunities to professional photographers, in addition to providing consumers with increased customisation options. Photographers can expect considerable business growth through enhanced efforts for innovative services and better customer satisfaction.
