PROSPECTS AND OPPORTUNITIES
Future performance depends heavily on recovery of property market
For appliances and electronics specialists in France, 2025 may mark a turning point after three challenging years. The market has suffered from soaring mortgage rates, reduced purchasing power due to inflation, and higher living costs, leading to diminished demand for appliances and electronics.
Refurbished tech takes off as GenAI smartphones signal a new era
French consumers already have an abundance of cooking appliances in their kitchens, but there is notable progress in categories such as vacuum cleaners, hot drink machines, fridges, and freezers. Meanwhile, the market for used smartphones is booming, with a significant share of smartphones in use in France being refurbished or second-hand at the end of 2024.
Shortage of electronic components threatens electronic device sales
Consumers may face significant and persistent disruptions in the coming years, driven by escalating raw material costs and shortages of critical components like electronic chips. This scenario is expected to trigger stock shortages in retail outlets and sustain price inflation, forcing consumers to opt for more expensive alternatives that are available.
