Executive summary

Another year of extraordinary growth after the crisis

The consumer electronics market continued to grow after the worst economic crisis in Argentine history. Consumers with more money in their pockets invested in electronic products. There was a gradual move away from cheap, poor quality to higher priced branded goods, with better designs and higher prices. New multinationals entered the market motivated by the strong growth of the economy and the consumer electronics market. Local companies also returned to the market with very good possibilities for growth.

Domestic players increase supply and competition

The devaluation of the currency enabled locally produced consumer electronics products to be more competitive with imported productive, and granted a leading role to local companies. With lines of production renewed and new technologies for the production of consumer electronics intense competition developed between domestic players and multinationals. Strong marketing campaigns, the opening of own branded stores and the extension of distribution channels is testimony of this.

Video replaces audio in the home

While audio equipment was seen as prestige products in the 1990s they were replaced in the new century by consumer electronics that offered visual entertainment, particularly since the arrival of high definition TVs. CRT units extended their size in inches as did LCD and Plasma models, which contributed to extending the market. Computers became popular, with Government measures that encouraged their purchase, with private label products gaining in importance in this subsector.

Portable, the new must have feature

Portability was one of the key features demanded by consumers in recent years, and these products became objects of desire among all social classes and ages. The arrival of digital music players extended demand previously dominated by cameras and laptops. The digital revolution signalled the end for analogue products and VHS format camcorders and cassette players were the main losers. The penetration of mobile phones surpassed the most optimistic expectations and became indispensable items for people.

With no sign of stagnation the market will continue to grow

Four years after the economic crisis, consumption levels have returned to levels similar to those seen before the economic fiasco. Nevertheless, there is no reason to think that growth in the consumer electronics market is going to stagnate. In the coming years consumer electronics products are expected to continue to grow, boosted by the general growth of the economy. The appearance of a new technology culture transformed consumer electronics products into necessity items and will ensure further expansion over the forecast period.
