Home and Garden in Germany

Value sales of home and garden in Germany continued to decline in 2024, as the industry was impacted by economic uncertainty, high interest rates, and weak consumer confidence. In particular, home furnishings recorded sharp declines, particularly in high-cost furniture, as consumers delayed purchases. However, home textiles and lighting proved more resilient due to sustained demand for sustainable products such as those certified by Grüner Knopf and OEKO-TEX.
