Housewares are products and items used within a household for various purposes, such as cooking, baking, and home organization.

Firstly, changing lifestyles and the trend toward more time spent at home have increased the demand for functional and aesthetically pleasing housewares. Additionally, the rise of e-commerce and online shopping platforms has made it easier for consumers to access a wide range of houseware products.

The tableware segment is expected to register the highest CAGR during 2022-2030. Tableware segment includes products like crockery, cutlery, glassware, and serveware.

With more people dining at home, people have started focusing on aesthetic and functional tableware, as it enhances home dining experiences. From everyday meals to special gatherings, consumers are looking for tableware sets that elevate their dining experience. Furthermore, a growing appreciation for unique and artisanal designs has played a significant role in driving the demand for tableware.

Vivo - Villeroy & Boch Group, Corelle, Pyrex, Luminarc, Schott Zwiesel, and among others are some of the prominent players operating in the tableware segment.
The housewares market in Asia Pacific is segmented into Australia, China, India, Japan, South Korea, and the Rest of Asia Pacific.

Many consumers in the region tend to opt for affordable and basic houseware products. Moreover, the market is highly competitive, with both local and international brands rivaling for better market positions.
In recent years, several trends have shaped the housewares market in emerging countries such as China, Japan, South Korea, India, and Australia.
