Rental and leasing of recreational and sports goods

NACE code 77.21 covers the rental and leasing of recreational and sports goods, an important industry that supports a wide range of leisure and sporting activities. This industry plays a vital role in the broader economy by providing access to equipment and gear that may be too expensive for individual consumers to purchase outright. By offering rental and leasing options, this industry enables more people to participate in various recreational and sports pursuits, contributing to a healthier and more active population.

Businesses operating under NACE code 77.21 typically acquire recreational and sports equipment through wholesale channels or directly from manufacturers. They then maintain, clean, and store the equipment to ensure it is in good condition for rental. The rental process often involves matching customers with the appropriate gear for their needs and providing guidance on proper usage and safety.

The main inputs required for the rental and leasing of recreational and sports goods include a diverse range of equipment such as bicycles, kayaks, skis, golf clubs, and camping gear. Businesses in this industry also require storage facilities, transportation for equipment delivery and pickup, and skilled staff to manage the rental operations.
