The home goods market

The home goods market consists of the manufacture, distribution, and retail of home furniture, cookware, gardening equipment, and household accessories. The home décor market in the United States alone was forecast to be worth over 232 billion U.S. dollars by 2021. The e-commerce section of this market is also anticipated to witness growth over the next few years, with many consumers making their purchases online, instead of at a physical home goods retailer. Couches, beds, and dining tables are examples of some home good products. In 2018, a total of 20.78 percent of U.S. consumers between the ages of 30 and 49 years purchased their furniture and household goods online. Bed Bath & Beyond has had a strong influence on U.S. consumers since its establishment in 1971. As of 2018, at least 40 percent of U.S. consumers of all adult age groups shopped for home accessories at Bed, Bath & Beyond.
