Research and Markets - Global Refrigerator Market CAGR Growth of 4.5% by 2020 - Trends, Technologies & Opportunities Report 2016-2020 - Vendors: Samsung Electronics, Whirlpool, Bosch

DUBLIN, October 13, 2016 /PRNewswire/ --

Research and Markets has announced the addition of the "Global Refrigerator Market 2016-2020" report to their offering.

The global refrigerator market is forecast to grow at a CAGR of 4.5% during the period 2016-2020.

According to the report, warmer or hotter weather condition is the primary driver for the refrigerator market. The hot and humid weather conditions have made consumers increasingly concerned about food spoilage and hygiene levels (for cooked food, perishable food items, beverages, and others) and have generated the demand for efficient refrigerators.

The low temperatures inside the refrigerator slow down the growth of microorganisms and the rate of chemical (including enzymes) changes in food. This allows for food storage for a few days until consumption.

Further, the report states that the high cost of refrigerator types like freezer-on-bottom refrigerators and smart connected refrigerators is hindering the growth of the market.

The prices offered by global players are very high, which pose a significant challenge as most end-users in developing countries (like India and China) are reluctant to make such pemium purchases, which affects the overall revenue of the global refrigerator market. The high cost of these refrigerators allows only the elite section of the population to adopt these refrigerators.
