PROSPECTS

Strong growth of internet retailing affects store-based operations

As in many apparel and footwear categories, the rise of internet retailing is exerting a significant influence on the development of hosiery. Indeed, the facts that consumers feel less need to try on hosiery before purchase and that hosiery products are small and light, and therefore particularly suited to home delivery, mean that the category is even more suitable for the expansion of internet retailing than other areas of apparel and footwear.

Socks remains the focus category in hoisery

Socks remained the key focus of hosiery at the end of the review period. A trend towards plain white socks, which accompanied the athleisure trend, and the increasing popularity of colourful and patterned socks to complement outfits made socks an inexpensive fashionable accessory.

Sheer hosiery demand bolstered by fashion trends

Demand for sheer hosiery is undermined by Singapore’s hot and humid conditions, with sales primarily focused on working professionals and older women. These consumer groups provide stable demand in the category, which is occasionally bolstered by fashion trends amongst younger consumers, such as that towards fishnet tights and socks with jeans and trainers or high-heeled shoes, which emerged towards the end of the review period.

COMPETITIVE LANDSCAPE

Byford losing share

Byford remained the largest player in hosiery in 2018, though it continued to lose value share during the year. The company’s lead stood at only two percentage points at the end of the review period, down from more than four in 2013.

Uniqlo thriving

Uniqlo increased its share of hosiery value sales annually throughout the review period, as it benefited from the increasingly fashionable status and growing reputation for quality of its overall offer. The focus on hosiery in high-end fashion witnessed at the end of the review period should help to bolster its sales in the category, as moves such as collaborations with major designers have helped to establish Uniqlo as the mainstream representative of higher-end aesthetics.

Local brand sees growth despite share erosion

While it saw a slight erosion of its value share in 2018, the Singaporean brand, Crocodile, continued to see sales rise, in contrast to many competitors, as it benefited from both its own small network of stores and its distribution through Franson International, which operates several standalone stores as well as concessions in the Isetan chain of department stores. Crocodile’s brand image is focused on the quality of its products and its local heritage.
