Fast Market Research recommends "Spectacles in Spain" from Euromonitor International, now available

Boston, MA -- (SBWire) -- 10/17/2014 --Much in line with the situation the category has been witnessing since the crisis hit the Spanish economy, in 2014, spectacles recorded a poor performance with sales declining by 4% in value terms. Although the economic situation is improving from the fragile state in 2013, the average Spanish consumer is still far from feeling the security they felt prior to 2008, which is affecting the category's performance.

Competitive Landscape

Spectacles is characterised by a high degree of fragmentation with over 26 companies operating in it. However, Luxottica accounts for the bulk of sales. In 2013, the company accounted for 13% of total value sales. The company benefits from its large portfolio of brands, especially luxury ones. With Spain being a tourist destination, it benefits from a growing number of them purchasing luxury sunglasses in the country at a cheaper price than in their country of origin, which has contributed to the company's overall performance.

Industry Prospects

Although over the forecast period value sales of spectacles will record negative growth rates in constant terms, they will witness a recovery from the even weaker performance they recorded over the review period. The Spanish economy will see a slow recovery of macroeconomic indicators; however, the recovery of the unemployment rate will take longer. This fact will limit the category's performance as average Spanish disposable income will not recover the level it had prior to the economic recession as fast as desired.
