Global consumer book publishing the market overview
The increasing disposable income of consumers in emerging nations is contributing extensively to the growth of the book markets. Technavio’s market research study has identified the growth of the book markets in emerging nations as one of the primary factors that will fuel the consumer book publishing market growth in the coming years. To drive digital innovations and increase the purchase of textbooks, the governments of various countries including Brazil, China, and Mexico are taking various initiatives, driving the growth of the book market. The consumer book publishing market statistics report compiled by our market research analysts have estimated that this global industry will register a revenue of more than USD 67 billion by 2021.
This is inducing several large publishers to enter the markets in these regions through joint ventures with local companies. To attain the competitive edge over the other players, the key vendors in the book printing market are also focusing on adopting several marketing strategies.
Owing to the rapid digitization, there is a major shift in preference from printed materials to digital materials. The increasing popularity and adoption of e-books for different experience are simultaneously influencing the adoption of specialized e-reading devices. Popular e-reading devices such as iPads and Kindle offer high-quality e-ink displays with crisp and clear text. E-readers primarily prefer these devices since they offer several benefits such as physical footprint, long battery life, and large storage capacity. According to our analysts, this increasing adoption of iPads and Kindle for e-book downloads will be one of the key trends that will favor the growth of the consumer book publishing market in the coming years.
