The consumer durable products industry refers to the manufacturing and sale of goods that
are expected to last for an extended period, typically more than three years. These products
include appliances such as refrigerators, washing machines, and air conditioners, as well as
electronic goods such as televisions, smartphones, and laptops.
The industry is characterized by the production of goods that are generally expensive and
bought infrequently by consumers. As a result, the industry is heavily reliant on consumer
confidence and economic conditions.
Consumer durable products are sold through a variety of channels, including brick-and-
mortar stores, online retailers, and direct sales. Major players in the industry include
companies like Samsung, LG, Whirlpool, Apple, and Sony.
The size of the consumer durable products industry varies by region, but globally it is a
multi-billion dollar industry. According to a report by Statista, the global consumer
electronics market was valued at $1.1 trillion in 2020, while the global home appliances
market was valued at $337 billion.
