Scope of the Report

The Whitegoods Retailing industry has experienced substantial volatility over the past five years. Despite challenges, the industry has demonstrated resilience thanks to the essential products it provides and retailers’ adoption of innovative sales strategies. Bricks-and-mortar retailers struggled at the onset of the COVID-19 pandemic, causing industry revenue to dip in 2019-20. However, companies with robust online platforms managed to protect their market share through omnichannel retail strategies. Growth in household budgets throughout 2020-21 and 2021-22 renewed demand for whitegoods, supported by strong consumer sentiment and a reduction in import prices. However, 2022-23 and 2023-24 brought new challenges to the industry, as a sharp spike in import prices coincided with declining household incomes. This scenario pressured retailers’ profit margins, as they struggled to pass on hiked costs amid weakened demand. Nevertheless, legislative adjustments in 2024-25 have set the stage for a market rebound. Major retailers have posted strong performances, with expectations of revenue growth through the end of 2024-25. Throughout the industry’s recent fluctuations, competition has intensified, with JB Hi-Fi and Harvey Norman retaining a dominant market share. Smaller retail chains have maintained niche market positions, benefiting from technological shifts and enhancements to their online sales platforms. Since online platforms require lower labour costs, they’ve helped support growth in retailers’ profit margins. Overall, industry revenue is expected to have expanded at an annualised 1.3% over the five years through 2024-25, to $9.4 billion, including an anticipated 1.6% expansion in 2024-25. Expectations for the Whitegoods Retailing industry over the next five years are largely optimistic. Easing cost-of-living pressures on households will help strengthen household demand, encouraging robust revenue growth in 2025-26 despite a likely increase in price competition. However, because demand for whitegoods from households is cyclical, industry revenue is poised to drop after 2025-26 as fewer houses look to upgrade existing goods. Despite this, increasing demand from newly formed households and improving consumer sentiment over the long run will partly offset some of the impacts of these challenges. Upstream innovations, the rise of online retailers and green consumer trends will also significantly shape the industry's path towards potential growth over the coming years. Overall, industry revenue is expected to expand at an annualised 1.0% over the five years through 2029-30, to reach $9.8 billion.

The market for non-domestic dish-washing machines in Australia is projected to see significant growth over the next decade, with an anticipated increase in market volume to 39K units by 2035 and market value to $87M (in nominal prices).

Key sectors, like domestic appliance retailers and department stores, heavily influence demand for whitegoods, meaning the industry's performance is closely tied to the retail environment. While the pandemic led to an early disruption in retail operations, post-pandemic challenges like rising inflation and increasing interest rates have been dragging down retail sales and wholesale orders, putting a dent in the industry's revenue stream. Overall, industry revenue is expected to have contracted at an annualised 2.2% over the five years through 2024-25, to $6.5 billion. This trend includes an anticipated decline of 0.5% in 2024-25. Wholesale bypass has become more prevalent, particularly among discount department stores like Kmart. This shift has intensified competition for smaller wholesalers, leading to a drop in the industry’s enterprise and establishment numbers over the past five years.

Scope of the Report

Household appliance manufacturers have been facing challenging operating conditions, largely because of high import penetration. Overseas manufacturers, especially those in China, Thailand and Malaysia, have lower wage and overhead costs. These manufacturers can establish greater economies of scale and charge lower prices for household appliances, making their products more appealing to Australian consumers. Revenue surged in 2022-23 as household appliance manufacturers passed on increased costs for key inputs, including iron and steel. Since 2023-24, domestic iron and steel prices have started to recede, benefiting manufacturers through reduced purchase costs. Overall, revenue is expected to have climbed at an annualised 2.3% over the five years through 2024-25, to $2.87 billion. This trend includes an anticipated drop of 3.2% in 2024-25 as inflationary pressures deter consumers from buying new household appliances. Household appliance manufacturers have faced intense competition in recent years. Since domestic manufacturers struggle to compete with overseas manufacturers in terms of price, they’ve shifted their focus towards manufacturing niche and specialised products, for which they can charge higher prices and promote their superior quality. Australian manufacturers have also been automating processes to improve operational efficiencies. Manufacturers have sought to capitalise on changing consumer preferences – like elevated demand for small kitchen appliances, including coffee machines and microwave ovens – to target niche markets and remain competitive. Manufacturers’ adaptive efforts have improved industrywide profitability over the past five years. Revenue is forecast to expand at an annualised 0.5% over the five years through 2029-30, to $2.93 billion. Stifling import penetration is on track to maintain pressure on domestic manufacturers’ performance. However, improved operational efficiencies and lower domestic iron and steel prices will alleviate cost pressures on manufacturers, enabling them to expand their profitability. Demand conditions are set to rebound as climbing consumer confidence encourages customers to make purchases that they may have deferred in favour of repairs.
