Although pandemic-related restrictions have now been lifted in South Africa, personal luxury is faced with a difficult consumer environment. Since locally, aspirational consumers comprise one of the biggest drivers of personal luxury, and they have also been the most impacted by an unstable economic environment as a result of the pandemic and outside factors such as rising fuel prices and the general increase in the cost of living, it is likely that recovery will be slow and beyond the forecast period with value sales (at constant 2022 prices) set to remain significantly lower than pre-pandemic levels.
South Africans are becoming increasingly accepting of the idea of second-hand personal luxury. In the past, many consumers were mistrusting of retailers offering these goods due to concerns over the authenticity of the brands.
Personal luxury brands tend to be concentrated in key cities such as Johannesburg and Cape Town, leaving the rest of South Africa underserved, unless potential customers are willing to travel. In a country as expansive as South Africa, potential customers with notable purchasing power are widespread and may not necessarily be mobile.
