LONDON - With Italian GDP demonstrating a decrease in 2014, companies suspending operations, the unemployment rate growing and the consumer confidence index dropping while taxes and labor costs remain high in the country, a large number of local purchasers prefer not to obtain consumer appliances. Though the government took some measures to improve the situation in the marketplace (e.g. “Eco-bonus” incentives), the sales decline was offset to a certain extent only. Besides, they could not give impetus to the consumption increase.

In Italy, the total production capability of local manufacturers goes down and many of them mull over relocating their plants in countries where labor costs are lower (e.g. Bulgaria, Turley and Poland). In the meantime, low-cost private label products manufactured overseas (in countries such as Turkey) have started to enjoy higher interest amongst Italian consumers, while local retailers have initiated to offer discounts and promotions, thus making revenues of domestic manufacturers even lower.

Currently, home cooking is gaining momentum in the country. As a result, the demand for major as well as small cooking appliances is on the rise. However, consumers are interested in energy-saving, flexible and multifunctional models and manufacturers have to work on new products to satisfy the requirements.
