Executive summary

Bullish outlook for 2007 sets a high momentum for the forecast period

The growth in volume and value for domestic electrical appliances in 2007 was unprecedented and went past the forecasts of many industry specialists. It is felt that this growth is driven by higher consumer confidence compared to the last two years. Growth in the commodity sector led to a stronger economy and this translated into a stronger currency for Malaysia. The higher spending power of the rural populace led to an increase of replacement purchase units.

Multinationals compete through new product development

More multinationals competed through new product development in a more aggressive and increasingly saturated market. Major players such as Panasonic examined its product line-up and had phased out its production of refrigeration and washing machine to concentrate on other products. Philips continues to develop new products in the small electrical appliances category. Players that manufacture domestically such as Pensonic Holdings Bhd and Khind are also beginning to move more strongly into research and development due to the government’s provision under the Ninth Malaysian plan and through special allocated funds that support such corporate investments. The Ninth Malaysian Plan is an annual economic blueprint produced by the Malaysian government to concentrate national funds on high-priority areas. Since 2006, the government has been allocated more resources from its budget for research and development by industries.

Property boom brings unprecedented growth

The property boom in Malaysia has led to the development of more mid-to-premium housing that has encouraged the purchase of new electrical appliances for the purpose of furnishing these homes. This led to a stronger growth for 2007 compared to 2006. Moreover, the increased construction of premium homes costing more than RM1 million per unit has led to more demand for premium built-in appliances, as affluent home owners seek to fill their homes with appliances that fit in with and convey their high social standing.

Small cooking and kitchen appliances grew more strongly

Changes in the cooking culture as more foreign expatriates and students enter Malaysia and changing trends meant that hitherto less popular small cooking appliances such as smoothie makers, induction cookers, electric knives, electric can openers, roasters and rotisseries and electric steamers may begin to make a more visible appearance over the forecast period. Moreover, changes in eating habits among the Malaysian population, as well as greater exposure to what is on offer, will encourage Malaysians to deviate from their established habits in selecting small cooking and kitchen appliances and encourage them to explore new options.

Moving beyond the basics

The profile of the majority of consumers show that they would still go for the basic group of appliances, this is slowly changing, even for more common products such as ceiling, standing or other fans. This is because a move towards a higher standard of living and greater affluence has led consumers to demand greater product innovativeness, such as a remote control fan or a better air-purifying function for the air-conditioner. This has led to greater value growth in the industry and encouraged manufacturers to premiumise their products in search of higher profit margins.
