LONDON – Dining room furniture is likely to be one of 2 furniture subcategories to attain growth by late 2017 as it accrues benefits from homeowners utilising their dining room more, especially for entertaining. More constrained buyers prefer hosting guests rather to eating out and, hence, wish to make the room as presentable as possible. Oak Furniture Land is projected to take the lead in the dining room furniture market by 2017-end, due to the net opening of new 9 stores and the ongoing financing of TV advertising.

The rate of Internet penetration of dining room furniture is one of the highest in the furniture universe, as the increased homogeneity of products in the category and relatively lower price points urge buyers to purchase online. Meantime, stores are being utilised more for pre-purchase research and, consequently, it is vital for retailers in this category to have a full multi-channel offer.

Penetration amid younger shoppers grew by 3.6% during the last year. In 2017, 31.2% of 16-24 year olds made purchases within the category, up from 27.6% YoY. This has been propelled by those coming into the housing marketplace for the first time ever.
