Consumer appliances in 2024: The big picture
Retail volume sales of consumer appliances are set to grow in Thailand in 2024, though the market has continued to grapple with the effects of inflation. Consumers have prioritised affordability and functionality, opting for essential features and multi-purpose appliances that are perceived as offering good value for money, as well as optimising the use of space in small urban homes.
2024 key trends
Thai consumers are seeking budget friendly models that prioritise essential functionalities over high-end features. This is undermining demand for premium brands and driving a rise in interest in multi-functional appliances that offer value for money and maximise the use of space in compact living areas.
Competitive landscape
Local player, Hatari Electric Co Ltd, is set to remain the largest player in consumer appliances overall in Thailand in 2024. The company benefits from the reputation and affordability of its air treatment products.
Retailing developments
Despite continuing to lose share, appliances and electronics specialists remains the strongest distribution channel for consumer appliances in the Thai market. These stores typically offer a wider range of products and brands than other store-based retailers, as well as having trained staff on hand to guide consumers in making their purchasing decisions.
What next for consumer appliances?
Looking ahead to 2024-2029, Thailand's consumer appliances market is expected to embrace innovation alongside affordability. The forecast period is likely to see the further emergence of smart features for a more convenient and personalised consumer experience across a range of categories, with app-controlled settings and potential integration with smart homes.
