With the Coronavirus (COVID-19) response seen across global markets, the home and garden industry saw a spike in demand in Q1 2020 in categories that cater to the needs of stay-at-home mandates and food supply concerns. Full-year 2020 industry sales will be shaped by the macroeconomic environment and further changes in consumer priorities, disruption in supply chains, and channel shifts, with a focus on e-commerce. Some of these trends are likely to have longer-term consequences beyond 2020.

While the impact of COVID-19 shifts has benefitted a number of categories within home and garden in Q1, as economies and consumers feel the full impact of COVID-19, retail sales are expected to slow down, with many consumers focusing on essentials in view of high unemployment and depressed incomes.
Housing markets across countries showed signs of decline later in Q1; these are likely to continue in Q2, with uncertainties and financial insecurities in place. Major renovation projects and construction are also expected to be put on hold. On the other hand, smaller DIY work at home and gardening trends will provide opportunities for the industry to provide relevant products and services to maintain consumer interest during the downturn.
While a number of industry participants have already been evaluating opportunities in the supply chain that go beyond a focus on China, COVID-19 and the expected disruption to supplies and inventories in Q2 and later in 2020 can open up opportunities for countries that have already be vying for a bigger share of product supplies. Attention to supply chain management will also be needed in view of e-commerce evolution.
Aside from China, with its already vast and increasingly efficient e-commerce network, the home and garden industry has been slow to tap into online retail. COVID-19 has further demonstrated the gap, forcing many brands and retailers to re-think their e-commerce and omnichannel retail strategies. The need goes beyond the COVID-19 response and will bring longer-term benefits to industry players wanting to remain relevant and competitive, both now and in future.
