Summary and extracts

1 Market overview

1.1 Definition and scope of the study

Tableware refers to the arts associated with cooking and the decoration of the space dedicated to it. The tableware market is composed of many segments, including tableware, cutlery, kitchen utensils, table linen, small portable appliances and decoration.

After years of decline of French manufacturers due to competition from low-cost Asian products, some producers located in France have managed to direct part of their production to export with success. Today, more than half of French production is exported, with constant design innovations aimed at conquering domestic and foreign markets.in a globalized environment, and while many small, family-owned companies with historical roots remain, the Tableware market continues to adapt to changing consumer demand.

While the covid-19 crisis dealt a blow to the market in 2020, the market managed to reduce its losses at the end of the year, supported by online sales, which grew by more than 50% over the year, and by sales at clearance stores.

While this study includes all tableware products, including the decoration segment, the latter is the subject of a specific study and not all aspects of the segment will be addressed here.
