Consumer electronics in 2025: The big picture
Consumer electronics in Nigeria remains in a negative volume decline in 2025, due to the significant hikes in the prices of electronics, midst exchange rate volatility. The devaluation of the NGN has further eroded consumer purchasing power, leading to spikes in import costs and worsening inflationary pressures. Furthermore, many Nigerian consumers remain unemployed and even those with jobs are struggling, as their salaries are losing value. These challenging economic times are having an adverse effect on consumer purchasing power, with people prioritising their essential living expenses and needs. On the other hand, value growth is high due to the same high prices and the fact that some categories are faring better than others in consumer electronics overall.
2025 key trends
There are some exceptions to the volume declines in 2025. Whilst some categories are not regarded as a priority, others such as smartphones, smart wearable electronics, wireless headbands, TWS earbuds, wireless speakers, and televisions are seen as being more essential and/or needed to be replaced with new technology advancements.
Competitive landscape
Transsion Holdings, a Chinese manufacturer of mobile phones, known for its strong presence in emerging markets such as Africa, holds a strong leading overall company place in consumer electronics in Nigeria. Its Tecno brand also holds overall top brand place, and its portfolio also includes popular brands such as Itel and Infinix. Samsung Electronics SA (Pty) Ltd is the second-placed company overall, with another Chinese player, Xiaomi Corp, in third overall company place.
Channel developments
Appliances and electronics specialists is by far the strongest distribution channel for consumer electronics in Nigeria. This is because consumers want to see in real life and test the products they seek to buy, before making their final decision. Such outlets also offer in-store professional advice and aftersales services to consumers, enhancing consumer confidence in the channel. Furthermore, appliances and electronics specialists offer a wide variety of products and a one-stop location where consumers can shop for what they want with a wide range of choice across brands and price bands.
What next for consumer electronics?
Volume sales of consumer electronics are expected to creep back into low positive figures over the forecast period. Meanwhile, value sales will fall as unit prices gradually stabilise from the spikes currently seen. While value sales will remain high, the level will be more stable.
