Executive summary

DIY Culture Not Developed Yet

Turkey has a strong skilled workforce in DIY sector which leads Turkish people to prefer not to ‘do it themselves’. In almost every neighbourhood in every city there are carpenters, plumbers, painters, gardeners or electricians. The labour of these professionals is still cheap. People usually hesitate to do the work themselves at home and usually rely on professionals.

One of the other factors is that the products do not come as in one package in small stores like they are in DIY stores. They are mainly targeted to professionals therefore there are no instructions included together with the products. People usually need to know what each fixture (e.g. screws or screwdrivers) is used for, which is an obstacle in the DIY sector. The DIY culture mainly depends on big DIY chains like Praktiker, Bauhaus or Koctas. Since these stores are located in certain areas of cities or in some part of Turkey do not exist at all the DIY culture is yet to develop.

Construction Sector Ignites DIY Stores

The rapid growth of the Turkish economy over the last five years has led to a boom in construction and house building. This strong growth in the construction sector has resulted in increased sales of building materials, DIY and the home improvement market.

The construction boom has been good for all DIY subsectors, which saw a significant growth in the review period. However it is not expecting to continue in the same growth rate in the next two years due to financial crisis.

Improvement in Gardening

Consistent demand for flowers and plants generated by households that have gardens or balconies improved the sector over the review period. Increased levels of home ownership that is related to ascending constructions and affordable mortgage credits led the growth in gardening.

With a range of fairs, websites and magazines that provide information on gardening, gardening products continued seeing a growth over the review period. Also the decrease in unit prices for gardening tools and relatively affordable garden decorations supported the improvement of the gardening sector.

Big Chains versus Small Stores

The small stores still hold the majority of the distribution channels in Turkey but the retail side of the market is moving rapidly towards chain stores like Koctas, Tekzen, Bauhaus and Praktiker. These stores provide customers with a greater choice than smaller stores and also provide products all in one package with instructions about how to use/build it. The big chains present special offers on all products and Turkish consumers prefer to buy small products like tiles, paint and screws in these chains, however, they prefer to buy expensive products like air-conditions and heaters in stores that particularly specialise in these products.

The main advantage of small stores is that they are located in every neighbourhood in every city in Turkey therefore reach majority of the Turkish population.

Brighter 2010

2009 is a difficult year for global economies including Turkey. The global financial crisis has had a negative impact on the construction sector, which in the third quarter of 2008 experienced negative growth for the year. The economic crisis is affecting the Turkish construction sector in more ways than one. A number of companies are struggling domestically. It is expected that many projects will be delayed until 2010.

However, the Housing Development Administration of Turkey (TOKI) has plans to build thousands of low-income houses in 2009. Also some of the biggest company’s projects are still on track. These developments will hopefully have a positive impact on the construction sector in 2009-2010, which will have a positive affect on the DIY sector.
