Recently published research from Business Monitor International, "Hungary Retail Report Q3 2010", is now available at Fast Market Research
 
June 14, 2010 - PRLog -- The Q310 BMI Hungary Retail report forecasts that the country's total retail sales will increase by 17% by 2014, growing from a predicted HUF6.43trn (US$37.42bn) in 2010 to HUF7.53trn (US$43.78bn) by 2014. Increased economic prosperity, despite the financial crisis, easier access to credit and the demand for premium products are principal factors behind modest retail market expansion, contributing to forecast annual retail sales growth of 3.8% in local currency terms between 2010 and 2014.

Hungary's nominal GDP in 2010 is expected to be US$151.56bn, with 2009's decline of 6.3% forecast to turn into growth of 0.1% in 2010 as the economy slowly begins to improve. Average annual GDP growth of 2.6% is forecast between 2010 and 2014. Even though the population is forecast to decrease slightly, from 10.0mn in 2010 to 9.9mn by 2014, consumer spending per capita is predicted to rise to US$11,050 by the end of the forecast period.

The demand for premium products and convenience are driving factors behind value growth across the Hungarian retail industry, with consumers increasingly regarding their purchases as status symbols. But local consumption patterns vary significantly according to income, with the average wage of US$14,321 in 2009 much lower than professional salaries. The government's austerity programme, which has reduced consumer expenditure, also means that many consumers are extremely price-conscious.

Hungary's median population age is rising steadily, with the proportion of those aged 20-44, a key sector for retail sales, forecast by the UN Population Division to rise from 35.3% of the total in 2005 to 35.6% in 2010.

Retail sub-sectors that are likely to grow over the forecast period include consumer electronics, with sales rising from US$2.23bn in 2010 to US$2.68bn by 2014, an increase of more than 20%. However, automotives sales are forecast to decrease by 8%, from US$2.27bn in 2010 to US$2.09 by 2014. Property experts forecast that about 450,000m2 of shopping centre space will be added to the Hungarian market between by 2012.

Retail sales for the BMI universe of Central and Eastern European (CEE) countries in 2010 amount to a forecast US$1,184bn, based on the varying national definitions. Total consumer spending for the region based on BMI's macroeconomic database is expected to be US$2,032bn. Russia, Turkey and Poland account for an estimated 80% of regional retail sales in 2010, which we forecast to remain steady through to 2014. For Hungary, its forecast market share of 3.2% in 2010 is expected to fall to 2.9% by 2014.
