PROSPECTS

Demand is weather-dependent, and in part driven by fashion trends

Depending on the type of hosiery, the weather, back-to-school season and fashion trends are factors driving demand. Sheer hosiery witnessed the highest current value growth in 2017, driven by fashion trends, with patterned and colourful tights being quite popular.

Infrequent purchases of reasonably-priced sheer hosiery

Hosiery in general is not purchased frequently. Tights and stockings are part of the school uniform and experience a spike in demand closer to the back-to-school season.

Slower growth for non-sheer hosiery

The larger category of non-sheer hosiery experienced lower current value growth in 2017 than in previous years, due to the difficult retail environment. Consumers cut back on non-essential items, and hosiery, especially fashion-orientated products, is perceived as a “luxury” by most consumers.

COMPETITIVE LANDSCAPE

Pepkor Holdings remains the leader in the highly fragmented hosiery category

As in other categories, the top three players in hosiery in 2017 were local retailers. Pepkor Holdings, which offers affordable clothing, led in 2017, although it lost some share.

The demand for trendy designs amongst younger consumers

Young and trendy professionals are open to experimenting with trendy designs and are willing to try fashion statement socks. Swedish brand Happy Socks offers colourful and trendy socks targeting younger consumers.
