Executive Summary

This Key Note Market Report examines the UK clothing retailing industry providing industry expertise on the value of the market the leading competitors and the key trends and issues impacting the different sectors throughout the past 5 years between 2010 and 2014 as well as forecasts for the future of the market up to 2019. Despite economic difficulties in the UK of late the clothing retailing market has witnessed consistent growth in value during the review period rising by 6.3% in 2014 alone.

Changing retail costs are a strong factor in the growth in value of the market with the average retail price of clothing having increased over the last decade. Global prices of cotton and other raw materials are fluctuating thus impacting costs along the supply chain while the recent strength of the pound against other international currencies has had an impact on costs with trade partners. However heavy discounting on the high street with record sales recorded on Black Friday and Cyber Monday in 2014 also lowered the margins of some retailers and left some with poor sales of full-price stock. Retail prices will continue to be somewhat uncertain owing to the effects of the international supply chain and the ongoing review into the structure of the business tax rates system in the UK announced in the Chancellor of the Exchequer’s Autumn Statement in December 2014 which will impact the taxes paid by clothing retailers on their business properties.
