The demand for refrigerators has been significantly impacted by rapid urbanisation. In 2021, the urban population of the United Kingdom reached 56 million people. The urbanisation rate in the UK was 0.3% in the same year, with 84.6% of the total population residing in urban areas by 2023. The shift towards urban living has resulted in changes in lifestyles, consumption habits, and living conditions, leading to a greater reliance on modern appliances like refrigerators.
With more people moving to urban areas, there is a rising need for compact and space-efficient refrigerators that can easily fit into smaller kitchen spaces and apartments. Additionally, the growing preference for refrigerators with multiple functions such as built-in ice makers, water dispensers, and flexible storage options to maximise efficiency in limited spaces is aiding the market.
According to trade statistics released by the International Trade Centre, electrical goods represent the most significant export category globally. Moreover, the advancement of refrigeration technology, including energy-efficient designs, smart refrigerators, and sophisticated cooling systems, stimulates consumer interest and drives the demand for better-performing refrigerators. Features such as touch-screen interfaces, voice activation, and integration with smart home systems further increase the attractiveness of these new models.
