Executive Summary
Over all Home appliance industry is fragmented and is equally divided between local
manufacturers and importers. Market in Pakistan is such that big multinational players tend to
just penetrate with local joint ventures or opening up its marketing and sales division as in case
of Mitsubishi, Samsung with Orient and LG with PEL, and Haier as a subsidiary of global Haier.
Reasons behind such strategy are
i. Already presence of local established players like PEL, Dawlance and Waves.
ii. Not so lucrative market due to easily available smuggled goods.
iii. Pie is too small to jump in for MNCs.
More over home appliance industry faced a recession in late 2008 and 2009, but 2010 data shows
that it had started recovering, but that time allowed new players like Haier establish well in the
market on the account of lack in performance by local players like Dawlance and PEL. The
recovery would have been much better if country was not to face floods of 2010. Sales were
impacted but as we know rehabilitation and recovery of affected areas is under process which
indicates that home appliances are going to be part of these recovery processes, so future of the
industry is going to be further brighter.

Home Appliance Industry of PakistanHome Appliance and Electronic goods are the main and integral components of daily life. A user
very frequently uses the Home Appliances and Electronic goods. Home Appliances and
Electronics goods form an industry, which needs to be faced with favorable policies by the state.
Home appliances are generally divided into two segments, White Goods and Black Goods, white
goods contain heavy consumer durables such as Air Conditioners, Refrigerators, Deep Freezers
and Microwaves where as Black goods contain relatively light electronic consumer durables such
as TVs, radios, digital media players, and computers.
Gray Market:Gray market goods are defined as items manufactured abroad and imported into the country
without the consent of the trademark holder. Gray market goods are not counterfeits; however,
differences may exist between these goods and those goods produced for the sale in that specific
country. Some of these differences may involve warranty coverage or compliance with country’s
regulatory requirements. The effect of this parallel system is that similar goods are available in
the US at different prices. Normally grey market exists in a country because of smuggling.
Pakistan is heaven for grey markets because of easier smuggling routes and high consumer
acception. Since grey products are not taxed so they are substantially cheaper than market’s other
Page 3 of 31
legal products. In Pakistan major component of grey market consists of black goods like
computers and mobiles.
Segment Selection Criterion:In pakistan white goods market is more formal, more regularized and more legal as compared to
black goods market. As a result companies operating in white goods market are pakistani based
or they have formal offices and plants where as if we see at T.V and mobile market, this sector is
very informal and many times gray. Even the leagal products of mobile and T.Vs are imported
by big importers, so no exact data is available as far as black good market is concerned.
In my report I will focus on white goods market since its more formal and reguralized and
second reason is because our existing and possible clients are from this segment.
Over View of Home Appliance industry in pakistanAccording to the report by Daily Times (www.dailytimes.com.pk), the business environment is
highly favorable for investment in home appliance industry of Pakistan. Therefore home
appliance industry is getting attention of foreign investors as well. China‟s home appliance giant
Haier has established the industrial zone in Punjab, Pakistan which is its second overseas
manufacturing base after United States. This is joint venture in home appliance industry between
Government of China and the private sector of Pakistan. It is very large and growing business
sector in Pakistan. In Pakistani home appliance market, there are two types of companies
involved in appliance business those are local and imported manufacturers and marketers. They
are engaged in both aspects of marketing that is business-to-business marketing (B2B) and
business-to-consumer (B2C) marketing. In business-to-business, the manufacturers sell their
products to retailers those are known as dealers. Dealers are responsible for retail selling to the
end users. A few of the companies also have their own retail outlets also. Since last few years the
manufacturers are facing a competitive and challenging situation in business-to-business
relationships due to following reasons.
Page 4 of 31
Important factors There are three factors to take into account for home appliance industry in Pakistan. Firstly, the
challenging situation has been created by dealers whose profits have been reduced due to certain
policies adopted by manufacturers in the last few years. So they are looking forward to new
manufacturers entering in the industry. More profits and better services are also being included
in their demands. Secondly, the new entrants in the manufacturing industry including
manufacturers and importers, either they are local or foreign investors have challenged the
domination of existing manufacturers and importers. Thirdly, due to the expansion in market size
horizontally and vertically, competitive situation has been increased among manufacturers within
the industry. Fluctuating customer requirements and competitive forces are putting more pressure
on marketers. They are demanding superior marketing strategy and tactical execution (Anni, I.
2002). According to Peter Cheverton, the relationships between B2B suppliers and customers
have become a vital source of competitive advantage. Many companies are moving from
traditional marketing towards relational-oriented marketing (Cheverton, P. 2004). Suppliers have
acknowledged that improved customer- supplier relationships increase key accounts customer
retention and loyalty more successfully (Abratt, R. & Kelly, P.M. 2002).

manufactures all of Orient Group of Companies’ product range, but also assembles Samsung air
conditioners, televisions, home theatres and Mitsubishi air conditioners on location.
In past 5 years Orient has been able to sustain rather slightly improve its market position and
reason behind its success has been Japanese brand reputation (Japanese products are considered
to be better in performance in Pakistan) and extensive promotions.

Dawlance, Orient has managed to secure 2nd position in market with 24% market share.

Pre Budget SituationBefore the announcement of budget, home appliance industry was on the recovery path from its 2008 &
2009 recession, floods in 2010 and energy crisis. Hence the recovery was a little slow, also imposed FED
on home appliances in budget 2010-11 worsened the situation. All this resulted in abnormal increase in
prices of appliances with increase of 5000 to 7000 a unit.
Impact of Budget on Home Appliance IndustryHome appliance industry is subjected to various duties and taxes which directly have impact on it cost of
manufacturing and selling. Before 2011-12 budget home appliance industry was entitled to 17% GST, 1%
FED. Also there are some import duties and special duties on certain types of raw materials. In Federal
Budget 2011-12, Government of Pakistan has relieved home appliance industry through various changes
in taxes and duties. Changes have been following:
1. Sales Tax has been reduced from 17% to 16%.
2. FED (Federal Excise Duty) of 1% has been taken back.
3. Tariff rationalization on bars, rods and profiles of refined copper and copper alloy.
The above mentioned changes have reduced the costs for home appliance industry. These changes will be
transferred to end consumer by lowering of selling price, which would in return increase the sales units.
Dawlance reduces prices:
After the budget announcement, Dawlance was the 1st company to respond by lowering the prices of its
brand by stating that they are transferring the relief to its customers. This is what a news paper had to say
on this.
“Dawlance, the no. 1 home appliances brand of Pakistan has decided to offer reduced post-budget prices
with immediate effect.
As per the budget 2011-12, the government has provided some relief in terms of sales tax and excise tax
on home appliances. The relief will lead to reduced prices of home appliances which are applicable from
July 1st 2011 onwards. Yet again proving their reliability, the largest home appliances manufacturer has
extended this reduction in taxes through their extensive dealer network to their consumers with immediate
effect.”
