Affordability and energy efficiency drive volume rebound as consumer appliances reverses decline
Consumer appliances in Nigeria returned to volume growth in 2025, reversing two consecutive years of decline, driven by urban expansion, hot weather conditions and rising demand for energy-efficient products. Price sensitivity continued to shape competitive dynamics, with affordable brands gaining share whilst premium players faced constraints. Hisense maintained leadership in major appliances and air conditioners through its price-led strategy, whilst Haier secured strong positioning via quality and aftersales service. Retail offline dominated distribution through specialist stores. Moderate growth is forecast as economic recovery and government energy-efficiency regulations drive innovation and consumer purchasing power improves.
