UK Menswear Retailers 2006
Verdict Research Limited, Oct 2006, Pages: 181
'UK Menswear Retailers 2006' is a detailed analysis of the menswear market and its leading operators. It provides users with the key issues in the market and the responses needed for retailers to thrive. Apart from market sizes and shares it also covers the key operating statistics, distribution channels and male spending trends - all important measures for retailers.
Scope of this title:
- The menswear market is analyzed in detail and includes unique market share information on the leading operators and the main channels of distribution.
- Eleven of the leading menswear operators are profiled, including Arcadia's Burton and TopMan fascias.
- In addition to clothing and menswear market shares, profiles include trading records and store and space data for a minimum of five years.
Highlights of this title:
Menswear is the most vulnerable of clothing markets in the face of an economic downturn - and in the past two years the sector has continued to lose share. At £8.7bn it is less than half the womenswear market and its share of total clothing has declined by 1.9 points in five years.
The value retailers and supermarkets are winning spend from men to the detriment of clothing and menswear specialists. For example, supermarkets are focusing on developing their non-food offers, particularly in clothing, and opening larger stores, or expanding existing ones. By the end of February 2007 Tesco will have 46 additional Extra stores.
With growth in menswear slower (1.7% vs clothing overall growth of 2.2% in 2006), general clothing retailers are reconfiguring space to maximise productivity and either reducing menswear space and increasing more productive categories or keeping the status quo. This isn't an option for menswear specialists, who must make existing space work harder.
Reasons to Purchase:
- This report summarizes and explains the key issues, trends and dynamics in the market and the necessary responses.
- Comprehensive consumer spending information of all the clothing sectors sets the context for the market.
- Key operating statistics allow users to benchmark businesses and use as a guide to performance across the market.
