The UK DIY & Gardening report offers a comprehensive insight into the DIY & Gardening market in the UK, analysing the sector, the major players, the main trends, and consumer attitudes, as well as providing market forecasts out to 2027.
The DIY & gardening market is forecast to fall by 0.6% in 2023, an improvement from 2022 when sales fell by 10.9%, as a slightly stronger performance in DIY held up a weaker gardening market, with declines of 0.2% and 1.2% respectively. Although many consumers cut back on non-essential spending, DIY was boosted by the weak housing market amid higher mortgage rates, as many consumers have been forced to improve their own homes instead of moving to tide them over until they can afford to move. The gardening market has had a weaker 2023, as unseasonable weather during the peak summer months impacted sales of weather-related categories. The DIY & gardening market is set to return to growth in 2024, rising by 1.9% as consumer confidence starts to return and the housing market picks up as mortgage rates should fall.
