UK Kitchen Furniture Market 2004-2014 £M

Source: 'Kitchen Furniture Market Research & Analysis Report - UK 2010-2014'

The UK kitchen furniture market is currently valued at £1.16 billion in 2010 at manufacturers selling prices, reflecting a market which is now entering a tentative growth phase following difficult trading conditions during the last 2 years. Sources indicate that the market peaked in terms of value during the first quarter of 2008 with the economic downturn being more profoundly felt by the industry during the second half of the year. The economic slowdown which took hold in Q2 2008 and subsequent negative impact on consumer confidence, housebuilding and house moving levels resulted in a rapid contraction in volume terms for the kitchen furniture market, with the market value declining rapidly in 2008, despite a relatively positive start to the year.

Consumer expenditure on big ticket items continued to decline in H1 2009, with the kitchen furniture market being particularly affected as householders sought to defer larger purchases. The rapid slowdown in the housing market also impacted the sector, with house moving levels often closely linked to purchases of new kitchen furniture. The slowdown continued through the third quarter of 2009, though trade sources indicate that slowly improving economic conditions in Q4 2009 prompted some optimism in the market, with, if not an improvement in market value then a cessation of decline evident.

Slightly improved trading conditions during Q4 2009 resulted in the year closing substantially down on the 2008 market value. This decline may well have been more severe if not for a return to growth in the housing market and slowly improving economy in the latter stages of the year, with UK recovering from recession and GDP rising, albeit by a very modest 0.1% in the last 3 months of 2009.

As highlighted in the above chart, the impact of the economic downturn on the kitchen furniture market has been severe. Our estimates are that the recession has potentially cost the industry in the region of £250 million of lost sales and growth relating to this sector specifically, reflecting a cost of around £10 million per month to the industry since the beginning of the recession in 2008. The level of business failures in both the manufacturing and distribution sectors of the kitchen furniture have continued to rise in recent months, with the effects of the economic downturn likely to reverberate throughout the industry for several years, more than 10% of kitchen retailers are currently considered 'at risk' by MTW.

Near term prospects for the industry are more positive, with a relatively steady rise in market value forecast for 2010 by value. In terms of macro-economic issues, the economy should continue a track of slow recovery during the first half of the year, followed by a more positive upturn in H2 2010. This, coupled with an improvement in the housing market and rising levels of consumer confidence should underpin some return to growth for the kitchen furniture market in the near term. An accelerated pattern of growth is forecast for the industry from mid 2010 onwards, reflecting an anticipated growth rate of around 16% between 2010 and 2013. Whilst inflation growth will negate some of this growth in the near term, our forecasts are for the industry to grow in real terms from Q3 2010 onwards.
