Industry Prospects

Over the next five years, refrigeration appliances is likely to record a marginally declining volume CAGR mainly due to two factors: firstly, the household equipment penetration rate for primary refrigeration appliance is already at a high level of 93% in France and the growth potential from secondary refrigeration requirements (wine/cheese coolers/chillers) are not expected to outrun this structural hindrance; secondly, the recent Hamon legislation on mandatory provisions in favour of the repair economy is expected to prolong product lifecycles, thereby also extending replacement times.
