[Asia Economy Reporter Lim Chun-han] As the endemic phase (periodic outbreak of infectious diseases) begins in earnest, Electron Land announced on the 26th that sales of major kitchen appliances have significantly increased this month.


According to Electron Land, from the 1st to the 22nd of this month, sales of electric ovens increased by 81% compared to the same period last year, water purifiers by 44%, dishwashers by 28%, electric rice cookers by 19%, and electric ranges by 18%.


Electron Land analyzes that the increase in kitchen appliance sales is due to soon-to-be-married couples who had postponed their weddings actively purchasing household items.



An Electron Land representative said, “Unlike in the past during the COVID-19 era when only essentials like refrigerators and microwaves were stocked in the kitchen, high-quality cooking appliances and devices that facilitate convenient kitchen life are gaining popularity. We expect various kitchen appliances such as wine refrigerators and food waste disposers to receive even more attention in the future.”
