Global Industries with the Highest Growth in Employment in 2023

  • 1. Global Tourism

    Employment Growth for 2023: 11.6%

    The industry will increase at a CAGR of 0.8% to $2.3 trillion over the five years to 2023, including a growth of 13.9% in 2023 alone. Global tourism has performed well during most of the five-year period, with emerging economies stimulating growth. Countries in Asia and South America have experienced robust growth in per capita income, which has enabled consumers in these regions to take overseas trips in increasing numbers. But because of COVID-19, industry revenue collapsed 40.1% in 2020. The global outbreak had an enormous effect on all tourism-related industries as many countries suspended international travel and limited the... Learn More

  • 2. Global Hotels & Resorts

    Employment Growth for 2023: 11.6%

    Over the five years to 2023, the Global Hotels and Resorts industry has expanded. Initially, strong growth before the pandemic occurred as consumers and businesses became more confident about their finances and spent more liberally on luxuries, including travel. This factor resulted in a substantial increase in hotel rooms and occupancy rates, two indicators of a hotel's performance. Global tourist arrivals were also steadily increasing until a drastic drop in 2020 due to the worldwide spread of COVID-19. In 2020 alone, industry revenue declined 40.1% due to the pandemic effect. The pandemic has enormously influenced all tourism-related industries, as many... Learn More

  • 3. Global Travel Agency Services

    Employment Growth for 2023: 7.7%

    Global travel agencies' revenue has grown despite core services dramatically changing due to consumers using online channels to research and book travel. Online booking agents now play a much more significant role alongside traditional brick-and-mortar travel agencies. International tourism thrived before COVID-19, but it severely cut into revenue in 2020, followed by a rebound in 2021 as the economy returned to normal. Global travel agencies' revenue has expanded at a CAGR of 2.5% to $474.7 billion through the end of 2023, including a 9.9% increase in 2023 alone.

    Brick-and-mortar travel agencies have reinvented themselves to remain relevant and competitive as online... Learn More

  • 4. Global Airport Operation

    Employment Growth for 2023: 6.4%

    Airport operators have faced complex operating conditions in recent years. Rising levels of airline passenger traffic before the COVID-19 pandemic enabled airports to earn significant revenue through passenger charges and services provided directly to airlines. At the same time, improving economic conditions increased corporate profit and fueled global manufacturing activity, causing airlines to operate more flights to transport greater quantities of cargo. The COVID-19 pandemic completely disrupted the industry in 2020, causing revenue losses of more than 40.0% in that year alone. Global airport operation revenue has increased at a CAGR of 1.5% to $254.7 billion through the end of... Learn More

  • 5. Global Casinos & Online Gambling

    Employment Growth for 2023: 4.8%

    Global casinos and online gambling businesses are still reeling from the aftereffects of the pandemic, with some rebounding swifter than others, depending on their country of operation and specialization. Sinking tourism rates, especially in 2020, left many casinos in dire straits, even if they were able to remain open in some capacity. Many have since reopened, welcoming eager tourists, but some, like those in Macau, continue experiencing operational delays related to the pandemic in 2023. As a result, though revenue began rebounding as early as 2021, revenue has been declining at a CAGR of 1.8% over the past five years,... Learn More

  • 6. Global Wine Manufacturing

    Employment Growth for 2023: 4.8%

    The Global Wine Manufacturing industry is projected to experience moderate growth as a result of disparate global trends. The industry's performance relies on consumer trends and therefore, on variables affecting decisions by consumers. Many countries traditionally associated with wine consumption have been consuming less wine, while countries traditionally associated with beer consumption have been consuming more wine. As a result, global consumption has grown modestly in recent years. Growth in consumption levels in important markets, like the United States, have fueled a large share of the industry's expansion. Industry revenue has been growing at a CAGR of 0.7% over the... Learn More

  • 7. Global Cosmetics Manufacturing

    Employment Growth for 2023: 4.2%

    Global cosmetic manufacturers faced troubles during the period. This industry provides a wide array of products; a good deal of these products are non-discretionary, which partly shielded manufacturers from major disruptions seen in 2020 during COVID-19. However, product lines like fragrances, parts of skincare and makeup are fully discretionary. As the disruptions ran their course, consumers spent less and remained at home to stop the spread of the virus. Because of this, demand for discretionary products plummeted, leaving a huge glut in demand within the market. In more recent years, a return of consumer spending and disposable income has led... Learn More

  • 8. Global Internet Service Providers

    Employment Growth for 2023: 3.9%

    Internet service providers have enjoyed growth over the current period. Consumers increasingly demanding faster internet speed in developed economies have boosted ISPs' performance amid sluggish subscriber growth. While rising mobile data subscriptions have constrained growth for ISPs in some developing regions, fixed broadband expansion in developing countries like China and India has bolstered growth. The emergence of powerful personal and business internet applications has transformed how businesses and consumers operate and has also presented opportunities for ISPs to offer additional high-margin services, benefiting profit. Overall, industry-wide revenue has been increasing at a CAGR of 2.2% over the past five years... Learn More

  • 9. Global Music Production and Distribution

    Employment Growth for 2023: 3.6%

    Digital music has ultimately shifted how artists engage with fans, a transition that has had major implications for global music producers and distributors. Digital sales have plummeted as subscriptions to streaming platforms providing massive libraries of albums surge. Physical sales have dipped but declined considerably as a share of revenue because of surging growth from streaming royalties. Industry-wide revenue has been growing at a CAGR of 4.4% over the past five years and is expected to total $38.7 billion in 2023, when revenue will jump by an estimated 3.3%, with profit set to climb to 9.5%.

    The outbreak of COVID-19 had... Learn More

  • 10. Global Spirits Manufacturing

    Employment Growth for 2023: 3.6%

    The Global Spirits Manufacturing industry has benefited from premiumization trends in both developed and emerging economies over the past five years. Emerging markets like China and India have picked up the slack from declines in Eastern Europe resulting from political tensions and government intervention. Spirit consumption in emerging markets has flourished alongside population growth and urbanization, while consumers in developed economies have spent more on spirits by trading up to premium products. The rising trend of ready-to-drink cocktails has fueled growth in developed economies, staving off competition from substitute beverages like wine and beer. Over the past five years, revenue...
