The UK Lighting Retailers Market 2004-2012:-

Whilst independent lighting retailers may lose some market share in 2009, a period of rapid transition and market re-positioning should result in a more healthy lighting distribution channel from 2010 onwards. This report, based on primary research and company sales from 70% of the market, found that lighting retailers are facing an increasingly difficult and complex trading environment in late 2008, with rising pressure on sales and profitability likely to characterise the channel in 2009. Whilst the recent 2.5% VAT reduction may offer some light relief to lighting retailer margins, MTW forecast that the sector will undergo a period of rapid transformation as retailers re-position themselves in order to avoid further pricing pressures.

The implications for lighting manufacturers and suppliers are clear as the independents seek to differentiate themselves from competing channels such as the DIY ‘Sheds’. The market continues to polarise, with 20% of independent retailers recorded as being ‘at serious risk’, with companies with a less well defined market position will feel the full force of the downturn in 2009.

However, the report also points to a degree of optimism, with market growth forecast for the medium term and more than 70% of the industry regarded as being a ‘low or below average risk’. There is a growing necessity for lighting product manufacturers to understand current market conditions and identify those companies who are best placed to weather the economic downturn in order to sustain sales in the UK domestic lamps and luminaires market.

Suppliers to the independent lighting stockists are likely to experience an increasingly competitive environment where retailers are progressively seeking to implement cost cutting measures. Sources indicate that retailers will inevitably look to suppliers to achieve this cost saving to some extent, with pricing pressures feeding through to the lighting manufacturers as a result.
