The outlook is positive for writing instruments overall during the forecast period. Demand will be mainly driven by an ongoing increase in the local population, supporting sales of writing instruments targeting school-age children, particularly for younger age groups despite growing digitalisation.
In order to drive greater value within writing instruments and appeal to a more sophisticated and older audience, established lifestyle stationery brands such as Typo, Smiggles and Paperchase are increasingly launching standalone boutique stores. Consumers who actively seek stationery and writing instruments are searching for products that incorporate a certain lifestyle element which also represents their own creative style or outlook, while these brands view Asia as offering further potential for growth and expansion.
While stationers/office supply stores (in other non-grocery retailers) is likely to remain the dominant distribution channel for writing instruments in Malaysia over the forecast period, smaller channels including hypermarkets, which is expanding its range, and e-commerce, offer potential as alternative sources of sales for brands by attracting increasingly busy consumers. Third party e-commerce marketplaces such as Shopee and Lazada allow leading brands to run official stores, like the Stabilo Flagship Store on Shopee Mall.
