Executive summary
Another Year of Growth Following the Crisis
DIY and gardening registered as a year of consecutive growth in 2006, following the economic crisis that affected Argentina between 1999 and 2002. Almost all sectors of the market expanded considerably, encouraged by the extension of credit to consumers and a growth in the sale of used and new houses. An increase in the average wage and a reduction in poverty were others factors that promoted sales. The rates of growth of the economy will slow down in the medium term, although it is anticipated that the benefits from economic growth will remain at least until 2011.
Large National Companies Grow and Multinationals Arrive
National companies were able to maintain growth by exporting their products at competitive prices, due to the devaluation of the local currency. The situation was enjoyed by companies both large and small, although first of all they had greater access to credit and were able to extend and modernise their production plants. In 2003 the Argentine company leaders headed huge publicity campaigns and established contracts with large retail chains, which were very successful.
The expansion of the market and the Argentine economy attracted a new wave of large investments on the part of multinational companies, either through direct investments, buying companies that had gone bankrupt during the economic crisis, or through representatives.
Increase in Property Construction Encourages Sales
Since 2003, an economic growth in property investments in Argentina, of more than 20% annually, was registered, and this had a positive impact on DIY and gardening sales. By the same token, this situation caused inflation to rise and a shortage of products, and consequently the reopening of factories and an increase in imports.
Large Retail Stores Conquer in the Market
In recent years public preference has leaned towards large retail stores, and this led to expansion and an increase in the arrival of new competitors. Department stores, shopping centres and supermarkets grew with the opening of new premises in the large towns and cities, and this benefited the market as it increased the availability of products. The expansion in DIY retailers modified the structure of the business in Argentina and encouraged consumer spending. The small specialised commercial outlets, which had been the favourites for decades, have lost a great deal of business.
Do It Yourself Concept Grows
With expansion in the economy and the improvement in wages, the DIY mentality grew, also thanks to televising programmes, magazines, books and pamphlets that advertised and encouraged the concept. The role of the retail channel was fundamental and will continue to be so in the medium term, through the availability of courses and services on offer. In the next few years it is expected that there will be a modification in the way products are promoted, and also in distribution and packaging.
