The Information and Communication Equipment retailing industry has benefitted from the digitisation of economies across Europe, with businesses expanding on their online offerings to capitalise on the growing e-commerce market. Most large countries enjoy high smartphone usage, providing retailers with a broad customer base and steady demand for device upgrades. However, some regions in Eastern Europe still see lower adoption rates. Retailers can boost their presence in these areas by targeting price-sensitive customers with flexible payment plans and promotions tailored to local preferences. This strategy increases sales without requiring customers to make large upfront payments, helping device retailers achieve ongoing revenue growth. Despite this, numerous economic headwinds plagued growth in the two years through 2023, ranging from a tightening cost of living to rising purchase costs from upstream suppliers. Revenue is anticipated to fall at a compound annual rate of 1% over the five years through 2025 to €101.6 billion, including an estimated hike of 1.6% in 2025, while the average industry profit margin is forecast to be 4.1%.
