According to GfK Temax, the technical consumer goods market in the Czech Republic recorded a growth by more than 7 percent in 2019, compared to 2018. The positive development was generated by all sectors except Photo and Information Technology with year on year decrease. The most growing sectors were Consumer Electronics and Telecommunications. Considering the Major Domestic Appliances in the fourth quarter of 2019, the two most important product groups (cooling and washing machines) showed sales growth, while there were lower sales of several categories including tumble dryers. This development resulted in overall stagnation of the tumble dryers in 2019. Considering the Small Domestic Appliances in the fourth quarter of 2019, a still very solid growth of this market was registered. There was a double-digit value growth of the key category vacuum cleaners thanks to the growing demand for robot and handstick models. Besides, also deep fryers, dental care and air treatment had positive results. On the other side, there was the continuously declining demand for kettles, mixers/blenders, juicers and hair clippers.
