The latest market figures from Appstat show that hopes for an improved market development for white goods and household appliances have not yet been fulfilled.

This is what HUI Research writes about the industry in its latest report &quot;Retail Business Report March 2025&quot;:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>\u201d&quot;Black Friday in November did not give consumer electronics and appliances the expected boost, with annual sales falling by 5.5 percent compared to 2023. The industry is forecast to grow by 4.5 percent this year - compared to the forecast of six percent before Christmas.&quot;.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>And this is how they say that the recovery is slow:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>\u2013 The home electronics and white goods trade is normally trend-driven, but consumer restraint has been clear, says William Lindquist (HUI), adding that the recovery will be more gradual than previously forecast.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-full\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"606\" height=\"340\" src=\"https:\/\/www.applia-sverige.se\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/03\/Statistik_feb_2025_2.jpg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-1541959\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.applia-sverige.se\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/03\/Statistik_feb_2025_2.jpg 606w, https:\/\/www.applia-sverige.se\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/03\/Statistik_feb_2025_2-300x168.jpg 300w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 606px) 100vw, 606px\" \/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-medium-font-size\"><strong>White goods close to last year&#039;s level<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Close, but still not quite at last year&#039;s level \u2013 that&#039;s the situation for MDA (major appliances). In February, 1.4 percent was missing from reaching that level, which is a slight improvement compared to January this year, when 2.2 percent (corrected value) was missing from last year.\u00a0<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>One product group that stands out positively within MDA is \u201dWash &amp; Dry\u201d containing washing machines and dryers. It is mainly the larger front-loading washing machines with 8 kg and larger capacity, as well as all types of dryers, that increase and improve the figures slightly.<strong><\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-medium-font-size\"><strong>Has the SDA bottomed out now?<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>For small domestic appliances (SDA), the situation is more negative, with a decrease of 12.8 percent compared to last year. Only the sub-segments \u201dmixers &amp; juicers\u201d and \u201dkettles\u201d show positive results, while sales of vacuum cleaners have decreased by 14 percent.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>It&#039;s high time to kick start spring cleaning now with new, fresh vacuum cleaners, right?<\/p>\n\n\n<section  class=\"tebab-block-person_grid aligncenter layout-small\">\n    <div class=\"contained\">\n        <div class=\"grid\">\n            <div class=\"person-card\">\n    \n            <div class=\"featured_image\">\n            <img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"150\" height=\"150\" src=\"https:\/\/www.applia-sverige.se\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/02\/Kent-Oderud_1_1_webb-150x150.png\" class=\"attachment-thumbnail size-thumbnail\" alt=\"\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.applia-sverige.se\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/02\/Kent-Oderud_1_1_webb-150x150.png 150w, https:\/\/www.applia-sverige.se\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/02\/Kent-Oderud_1_1_webb-300x300.png 300w, https:\/\/www.applia-sverige.se\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/02\/Kent-Oderud_1_1_webb.png 675w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 150px) 100vw, 150px\" \/>        <\/div>\n    \n    <div class=\"content-wrapper\">\n        <div class=\"top\">\n                            <div class=\"title\">\n                    APPLiA Sweden                <\/div>\n                    <\/div>\n        \n        <h3>Kent Oderud<\/h3>\n\n                    <div class=\"excerpt\">\n                President            <\/div>\n        \n        <div class=\"links\">\n            \n                            <a href=\"mailto:kent.oderud@applia-sverige.se\">\n                    <div class=\"icon icon-envelope\"><\/div> kent.oderud@applia-sverige.se                <\/a>\n                    <\/div>\n        \n    <\/div>\n<\/div>        <\/div>\n    <\/div>\n<\/section>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Marknaden f\u00f6r vitvaror och hush\u00e5llsmaskiner forts\u00e4tter att vara utmanande.
