Major Household Appliance Manufacturing in the US

Things that make a house a home

With products designed for the sole purpose of creating a functional home, this declining industry will be impacted by the changing social structure of the average household. With the average family becoming smaller in size, demand for smaller products will increase. As marriage rates decline and divorce rates rise, there will be fewer dual-income families with greater disposable income to spend on appliances. Although growth in demand for meals prepared outside the home may reduce demand for some food-related appliances.

This industry comprises establishments primarily engaged in manufacturing household-type cooking appliances, household-type laundry equipment, household-type refrigerators, upright and chest freezers, and other electrical and non-electrical major household-type appliances, such as dishwashers, water heaters, and garbage disposal units. This report covers the scope, size, disposition and growth of the industry including the key sensitivities and success factors.
