BHETA Q4 Housewares & SEA Market Update

EVENT OVERVIEW

It’s been a summer of contrasts for housewares and small electricals. Record heat sent shoppers rushing for fans and cooling tech, while homewares retailers saw a slow start to the season before trading picked up into the autumn. Now, as one of the high street’s biggest value retailers faces an uncertain future and peak trading gets underway, members will want a clear view of where demand is really heading.

GlobalData's Maddie Malone returns on 9th December to update members on category and retailer performances in our sector this year.

​The presentations will cover:
- Government ONS retail sales figures by channel by month
- GlobalData category growth rates
- GlobalData forecasts
- Latest retailer updates from all companies in our sector
- Google trends data on how customers are searching in our categories

Following the 45 minute presentation, attendees will have the opportunity to pose questions directly to Maddie and Steve.
