PROSPECTS

Importance of design aesthetics to Swedish consumers influences developments in wireless speakers

Wireless speakers saw a continued healthy performance in the portable players category in 2019. There is interplay between wireless speakers and home furnishings, especially with respect to design and practical space-saving solutions.

Multi-room audio concept increasingly attracts consumers

Multi-room audio – the ability to listen to audio in several rooms – is the current buzzword shaping new product developments in wireless speakers. Retailers report that interest in multi-room audio is growing, with consumers becoming increasingly informed, and actively seeking in-store product demonstrations.

E-readers suffer competition from both sides of the digital page

A negative outlook remains for e-readers in Sweden, with the category set to see continued decline over the forecast period. This is due to two factors: first is the continued and sizeable household preference for paper books rather than their electronic alternatives; the second is substitution of dedicated e-readers with alternative devices such as smartphones and tablets, penetration of which is already high.

COMPETITIVE LANDSCAPE

Swedish language support key for Google Home and Amazon Echo

The launch of Google Home and Google Home Mini (Alphabet Inc) with Swedish language support in the second half of 2018 achieved huge sales success. The electronics and appliance specialist retailer Elgiganten stated that these represented its top-selling products in December 2018.

HomePod may struggle to take a bite of the apple, iPod suffers erosion by smartphones

Apple’s volume share declined in 2019, but it is likely that the global giant will regain this lost share following the launch of its Apple HomePod. The product is anticipated to immediately appeal to Sweden’s strong base of Apple enthusiasts, but beyond initial enthusiasm among early adopters, a strong increase in volume sales could be difficult to achieve given its late entry into an already crowded space.

Zound gets the blues as Marshall amp products lose volume

Zound Industries International AB is a leading domestic player in wireless speakers. The company’s standing in this category can be attributed to the deliberate positioning of its Marshall range – a brand licensed from the British company Marshall Amplification, and mimicking the appearance of Marshall’s iconic guitar amplifiers – as a lifestyle brand.
