United Kingdom (UK) Electricals Market Size, Trends, Consumer Attitudes and Key Players, 2021-2026 report offers comprehensive insight and analysis of the Electricals market, the major players, key trends, and consumer attitudes. It provides in-depth analysis of the hot issues impacting the market (such as inflation), strategies for success, market sizes from 2016 and forecasts to 2026, retailer profiles and market shares, and consumer shopping behaviour. Consumer data is based on our 2022 UK How Britain Shops survey, using a panel of 10,000 nationally representative consumers.
The electricals market is forecast to decline in 2022, as categories such as major kitchen appliances pull down overall growth of the sector. Indeed, in the UK, the electricals sector is forecast to be among the worst performing sectors following two years of positive growth. This will be driven by a significant decline in volumes as consumers cut back on all but essential purchases this year, as well as the disruption to replacement cycles that occurred during the pandemic.
