Homeshopping did not see any real benefit from COVID-19 as consumers continued the shift away from homeshopping to e-commerce, and continued to see declining sales in 2021. As online shopping became more prevalent, even older consumers, who would previously have used homeshopping, discovered the benefits of e-commerce.
Many homeshopping players continued to focus more on developing their online presence in 2021. Many no longer offer physical catalogues, but are shifting to an entirely online business model, especially as during the COVID-19 pandemic e-commerce gained important ground in Denmark.
Apart from the shift to e-commerce, homeshopping is also suffering from a natural decline in its consumer base. As many homeshopping users are from the older generations, the consumer base is naturally declining and many younger consumers are not even familiar with the concept of homeshopping.
Homeshopping is expected to continue to see declining sales across all categories over the forecast period as it faces increasing competition from e-commerce and more players shift to an entirely online business model. The lack of younger consumers will also continue to impact growth in homeshopping as the category will continue with only a very limited loyal following amongst elderly consumers in Denmark.
The number of players in homeshopping will continue to decline as the channel becomes less popular, and players will either go out of business of shift to e-commerce. It is unlikely that any new players will enter homeshopping over the forecast period, with e-commerce being the preferred business model for most new companies interested in servicing consumers through non-store retailing.
As sales continue to decline and more homeshopping players continue to shift their focus online, it is likely that a growing number of players will abandon the homeshopping model altogether and become pure play online players over the forecast period. Homeshopping has come to be seen as outdated by Danish consumers.
