#19 In EuropeRepairs of personal and household goods are sensitive to various economic factors. Typically, consumers will postpone new purchases if they expect the economy to worsen or their incomes to shrink, trading down to repair services to save money. The total private consumption expenditure of households is a good indicator of demand; higher spending suggests consumers are buying new appliances instead of repairing old ones, cutting into the need for repairs. However, this does create a bigger potential market for repair services further down the line. Over the five years through 2024, revenue is expected to dip at a compound annual rate of 6.6% to €17.1 billion.
