Executive summary

Growth slowing down

The demands for DIY and gardening were stable in 2008, though there was a difference between the inland and coastal regions, where people are more affluent. Another important factor that dominated the market performance was the global financial crisis, which affected the market negatively, causing the market to grow slower than 2007 and dragged the DIY market with negative growth. Growth slowed as the first major stage of home ownership and decoration has occurred in the major cities.

Deposit or consumption

The global financial turmoil has seriously impacted on China’s economy. While the real estate industry has been affected the most, the confidence of some consumers has been lost and they now want to save money instead of buying DIY and gardening products. The government has set up policies to encourage consumption, which has also pushed the sales of the industry, but the domestic consumption behaviour has changed while people look after their incomings.

Barbecues becoming popular

Barbecues saw the fastest growth among all subsectors. As the western style eating behaviour is getting popular in china, middle classes tired of Chinese food have been trying barbecues at home, which has resulted in booming demands for barbecues. Nevertheless, the new holiday law gave more time for Chinese to stay at home that enabled them to carry out leisure activities such as roasting.

Market in its infancy

DIY and gardening in China is relatively new and there are no large market players apart from paint decorating, electrical supplies, kitchen and bathroom equipment, wall coverings and floorings. The market started after the opening up of the private housing market, which was booming as a result of the continuous rapid increases in average salaries and consumer spending power. Combines with support from government policies, the market is about to enter into a period of fast growth.

Future growth promising

The future growth will be totally dependent on the financial environments. As we expect the global economy to recover in 2010, the market will reconsolidate and continue with its strong growth. The 2009 market growth will be slower than in 2008; both DIY and hardware stores or mixed retailers will continue to dominate the market distribution. A boom in private housing will continue to fuel the market for home decoration in the future.
