Online Kitchen and Diningware Sales in Australia industry analysis

The Online Kitchen and Diningware Sales industry has performed strongly in recent years. Continued acceptance of online shopping and the growing number of internet subscribers have supported revenue growth. However, fluctuating consumer sentiment has balanced some of the growth, as recent uncertainty surrounding the economy and personal finances has prompted some consumers to cut back on their spending on non-essential items like kitchen and diningware. Nonetheless, online retailers have benefited from consumers seeking choice and value as bargain hunting has become increasingly prevalent. Consumers can search, compare and evaluate options across various websites, with an unprecedented range of online products at competitive prices. Overall, industry revenue is expected to grow at an annualised 8.7% over the five years through 2023-24, to $580.5 million. This trend includes an anticipated revenue climb of 7.1% in 2023-24, as post-restriction instore shopping slows and retailers revert to online bargain hunting.

Trends and Insights

  • Online kitchen and diningware stores have enjoyed robust growth as consumers increasingly seek choice and value in online shopping. The COVID-19 lockdowns and a rising interest in home renovations and cooking have contributed significantly to this trend.
  • Online kitchen and diningware stores sell a wide range of products like cookware, bakeware, cutlery, utensils and glassware. These product offerings are comparable to those available in traditional physical stores. Bakeware products are the highest contributor to revenue.
