EXECUTIVE SUMMARY
Depressed housing market and high inflation offset the benefit of higher disposable income, resulting in negative volume growth for large and small appliances
Value growth increases despite lower demand as consumers choose higher-value products, especially when purchasing major appliances
Leading players maintain their volume shares and positions as the competitive landscape sees little significant change despite lower volume growth
Internet retailing continues to post fast growth, while electronics and appliance specialists maintain strength by offering better in-store service and experience
Consumer appliances set to see continuing volume declines in most categories, but value growth is expected to be steady

COMPETITIVE LANDSCAPE
Despite slower demand for Senseo coffee machines, Koninklijke maintains its lead over Groupe SEB with mass marketing campaigns and wider distribution
Groupe SEB’s Tefal brand strengthens its lead in deep fat fryers and gains substantial ground over Philips in the light fryers category
