Further
key findings from the study suggest:
- Convection ovens accounted for over 45% of the
market share in 2014, which can be primarily attributed to their ability
to cook food faster. In addition, these microwave ovens facilitate the
cooking of multiple items simultaneously. Vegetables, cookies, roasted
meats and cookies can be effectively prepared in a convection microwave
oven. Grill ovens also contributed to a significant portion of the market
revenue. Increased emphasis on healthy eating habits has propelled the
demand for grill ovens as they are used for roasting food in a very short
duration.
- Household microwave ovens contributed to over 60%
of the overall revenue in 2014. Demand for household oven primarily
originates from the working segment owing to quicker food preparation
times. A surge in the establishment of hotels and fast food centers has
favorably impacted microwaves’ adoption in commercial applications as they
enable the serving of a large volume of food in shorter durations.
- Built-in microwaves have gained prominence over
the last few years owing to their compact nature which facilitates their
accommodation in modular kitchens. They also enhance the aesthetics of the
kitchen as they can fit in a wall or a cabinet, thereby offering some
counter free space in the kitchen. Counter-top microwaves are available in
various sizes and can be installed manually without the need of an expert,
owing to which they occupied a majority of the revenue share.
- North America accounted for over 30% of the
market in 2014 which can be attributed to high penetration of microwaves
across households and commercial establishments. The industry has reached
its maturity stage in the U.S. and also several European countries,
resulting in a potentially sluggish growth rate over the forecast period.
Most of the microwave sales in North America and Western Europe are
expected to emerge from customers opting for premium microwaves. The
microwave oven industry has substantial growth prospects in the Asia
Pacific region as majority of sales are expected to originate from
customers purchasing microwaves for the first time.
- Key industry participants include Samsung, LG
Electronics, Panasonic, Electrolux, and Galanz. Companies focus on product
differentiation and geographical diversification as key strategies to
expand their presence and achieve higher market penetration. Manufacturers
also emphasize on the development of energy efficient microwaves to lower
electricity consumption.
