Executive summary

Country's Economic Performance Influences DIY Growth

Increasing numbers of Portuguese consumers are taking up DIY (Do It Yourself) as a hobby and this is driving sales in the sector. DIY sales grew in current terms over the 2001-2006 period, despite declining sales in 2002. Nevertheless, the level of activity and growth in DIY has been influenced by the lacklustre performance of the Portuguese economy.

Potential Growth in Gardening

Despite several years of promotion and other efforts by key commercial players, the gardening sector in Portugal remains in the early stages of development. Growth in the sector is anticipated but it will be difficult, as the country's inconsistent economic performance drives consumers away from purchasing what they consider to be non-critical items, including gardening products.

New Retail Outlets Are Gaining Importance

A key factor in the evolution of the DIY subsector in Portugal has been the emergence of large, specialist furniture and home furnishings companies and their attractive multiple retail outlets. Among these companies are new players in the market like IKEA as well as local companies like AKI. In the gardening subsector, the garden centre format continues to be the retail model, and several new centres opened during the review period.

A Highly Fragmented Market

The DIY market in Portugal is significantly fragmented, with the seven key players generating less than one fifth of the total market sales. The gardening market is less fragmented, and there has been considerable consolidation over the review period. Generally, larger outlets are becoming increasingly popular with consumers because of the broad range, low prices and pool of gardening expertise they make available to customers.

Growth Should Be Steady but Not Spectacular

The forecast for both DIY and gardening in Portugal reflects fairly steady growth. On the other hand, there are high levels of uncertainty regarding the future performance of the broader Portuguese economy, as it is increasingly influenced by the demands of European markets such as Germany and Spain. In this environment, Portuguese consumers tend to prefer to "wait and see" rather than change their current purchasing patterns.
