Upcoming commercial construction in leading economies, such as the United States, may propel the growth of commercial construction
- In North America, the new floor area construction in the commercial sector was 4% higher in 2022 compared to 2021, primarily due to Canada and Mexico, which recorded growth rates of about 7% and 24%, respectively, during the same period. The new floor area construction of the sector was estimated to increase by around 6% in 2023 compared to 2022 due to the growth in demand for commercial spaces as the work-from-home trend declined and businesses expanded across the region.
- The sector witnessed noticeable losses during 2020 and 2021 because of the COVID-19 pandemic and its impact, such as disruptions in supply chains and economic uncertainty. As a result, the new floor area constructions in 2020 and 2021 declined by 12.96% and 8.39% compared to their respective previous years. The sector was most affected in Canada in 2020, such that the new floor area construction declined by 25.05% over the previous year.
- The commercial sector's new floor area construction is expected to register a CAGR of 4% in terms of volume during the forecast period (2023-2030) due to upcoming commercial construction activities, primarily in leading economies such as the United States. For instance, 103rd Street and Antioch Road mixed-use redevelopment, Elliot and Sossaman Road data center, Monroe Block mixed-use complex, and Woodside Square redevelopment were some large commercial projects that were expected to commence in the country in 2023. The sector is estimated to witness the most growth in Mexico, with the new floor area construction estimated to reach 192 million sq. ft by 2030 compared to 136 million sq. ft in 2022.

Canada is expected to lead the residential sector's growth in North America, driven by rising incomes, low interest rates, and an influx of new residents
- In 2022, the residential sector in North America saw a 5.03% growth in new floor area construction despite soaring housing prices. Notably, mortgage rates in the United States surged from 3.2% to approximately 7.5% by early 2022. This surge was expected to persist in 2023, with new floor area construction rising by 3.45%. By May 2023, the United States was estimated to hit 1.63 million new home constructions, marking a significant surge from 1.8 million units since April 2022.
- In 2020, the region's residential sector faced a setback, witnessing a 90-million sq. ft drop in new floor area construction, primarily due to the negative impact of the COVID-19 pandemic. These disruptions included lockdowns, liquidity constraints, and a dampened demand for new buildings. For instance, in 2020, new residential construction in Canada saw a steep 51.9% decline in multi-family homebuilding. However, in 2021, with the economies recovering from the impact of the pandemic, the sector also rebounded, with a notable 289 million sq. ft increase in new floor area construction. Specifically, the United States and Canada saw volume growths of 14.5% and 19.7%, respectively, in new residential construction.
- The region's new floor area construction is projected to witness a CAGR of 3.67% in terms of volume from 2023 to 2030. Canada is expected to lead this growth, driven by rising incomes, low interest rates, and an influx of new residents, particularly millennials and Gen Z, who are forming their own households and seeking homeownership.
