  • Summary

  • Hardly any other sector is as strongly characterized by offline business as the DIY & garden sector - and not just in Germany or Europe, but worldwide. This means that the DIY market still has a gold rush ahead of it in the marketplace business. A few figures: Between 2019 and 2023, online sales in the DIY & Garden sector in Germany increased by 20 percent, while brick-and-mortar retail only grew by 5 percent. 38% of online sales are generated via marketplaces. However, the online share of total retail sales in the DIY sector is only 7 percent. So there is still a lot of room for improvement... In the new episode 73, Inaki Maillard, Managing Director of the Global DIY Summit, the world's largest industry gathering, explains why the online and marketplace business of DIY providers is still in its infancy. Around 1,000 C-level DIY specialists come together at the Global DIY Summit every year - but online-marketplaces had hardly entered their business agenda until 2020. Inaki discusses the extent to which coronavirus has changed the DIY market, the importance TikTok will play in the future and what manufacturers and retailers need to master the challenges in the marketplace business. And he invites you to the Virtual DIY Summit, which he is organizing together with Marketplace Universe on September 27th! Industry professionals can join virtually to discuss the latest trends - and the new marketplace boom in DIY is definitly one of them!
