Market Overview

The Diaries & Planners Market continues to thrive despite the widespread adoption of digital planning tools, proving that physical planners remain relevant in enhancing productivity, organization, and well-being. In 2024, the market was valued at USD 3.27 billion and is set to grow to USD 3.4 billion in 2025, achieving USD 5.0 billion by 2035 at a CAGR of 3.9% (2025–2035).

From 2019 to 2023, diaries and planners saw a renewed purpose: not only as scheduling aids but also as tools supporting mental health, mindfulness journaling, goal setting, and creative expression. Additionally, the hybrid demand that blends paper planners with digital applications has given new life to the category in both personal and professional contexts.

  • Mental Well-Being Focus: Journals and planners are increasingly marketed as tools to support mindfulness, productivity, and stress relief.
  • Eco-Friendly Shift: Demand for planners made from recyclable paper, vegan leather, and sustainable ink continues to grow.
  • Remote Work Trends: Home-based professionals and remote teams are adopting planners for better self-management and accountability.
