Household Appliance Stores in the US industry analysis

While appliance sales dipped in the immediate wake of the COVID-19 pandemic, a surge in home renovation projects and a strong residential construction market boosted demand for major home appliances. As stay-at-home measures persisted into 2020, consumers, aided by federal stimulus packages, took on home renovation projects as more time was spent at home. Similarly, strong demand for new homes led to increased housing starts, further increasing demand for new home appliances. Prior to the surge in demand, manufacturers adjusted production schedules to meet the initially reduced demand at the pandemic's start, shortening supply and resulting in significant supply chain disruptions, long lead times and price increases. In 2024, demand for household appliances will remain elevated as supply chain disruptions persist. But industry-wide revenue has increased at an estimated CAGR of 0.9% over the past five years, including an approximate 1.2% drop in 2024, totaling $35.1 billion. In the same year, profit is projected to drop to 3.6%.

Trends and Insights

  • The 2021 real estate boom triggered increased appliance purchases, benefiting the industry. However, competition from major retailers, like Lowe's and Best Buy, led to aggressive discounting, constraining profit growth.
  • Supply chain disruptions have impacted major laundry appliances, prompting quality prioritization because of resource scarcity. Meanwhile, pandemic-induced remote work has surged demand for small household appliances amid rising e-commerce competition.
  • Entering the market can be daunting because of high purchase costs and marketing expenses. Large firms often offer value-added services, steepening the competition for newcomers.
