Kenya’s Home Appliances Market Expected to Reach. Usd73.4million by 2029

Kenya’s household appliance market is poised for sustained growth, with revenue expected to reach USD. 48.82million in 2025 and expand at a compound annual growth rate of 10.75% to hit USD. 73.43 million by 2029. This growth reflects a growing appetite among Kenyan consumers for modern, efficient, and innovative home solutions. The demand for appliances such as refrigerators, washing machines, and microwaves is increasing, fueled by urbanization, changing consumer lifestyles and greater emphasis on convenience. By 2029, the number of household appliance users in Kenya is expected to reach 2 million with user penetration at 5.8% in 2025 tapering to 5.5% by 2029. For manufacturers and retailers, this will translate to an average revenue per user of USD 34.41. Against the backdrop of increasing uptake of appliances, LG Electronics is strengthening its leadership in Kenya by introducing innovative products tailored to evolving consumer needs. Among its latest offerings is the new Instaview Bottom Freezer Fridge that helps families save money and reduce waste. Featuring LG’s signature Instaview technology allowing users to knock twice on a glass panel to view the contents without opening the door, the fridge boasts superior energy efficiency, optimized storage, and convenience for busy households. Donghun Lee, LG East Africa President, said, “Kenyan consumers are increasingly seeking appliances that not only deliver performance but also enhance daily living experiences. We are proud to introduce innovations like our new Bottom Freezer to enhance our already strong product catalogue in the Kenyan market and satisfy the demands of our changing customers.” While penetration rates remain modest compared to global benchmarks, the Kenyan market presents immense potential as more households embrace innovative new products. The influx of next-generation appliances, especially powered by technology such as LG’s Affectionate Intelligence (AI), drives uptake by the growing urban population that looks for convenience and connectedness in their appliance market. “Kenya’s appliance market is going to grow until it reaches a point where basic utilitarian functions morph into a desire for premium features, eco-friendly categories, and smarter living solutions even at the entry level. We are innovating and creating products to satisfy this need and will continue to be the partner that our customers prefer,” added Mr. Lee.
