Trade Trends
Global toaster exports increased from $1.08B in 2019 to $1.18B in 2023, representing an 8.65% growth over the five-year period. Export values peaked in 2021 at $1.65B before declining in 2022 and 2023, with the 2023 figure slightly below the $1.22B recorded in 2022.
This performance reflects evolving consumer demand for small kitchen appliances driven by lifestyle changes and increased household appliance adoption. The surge in 2021 can largely be attributed to higher at-home cooking activity during the pandemic. The subsequent slowdown suggests market normalization, inventory corrections, and supply chain constraints. Despite this moderation, the continued growth in 2023 highlights the toaster market’s resilience and stable long-term demand.
