EXECUTIVE SUMMARY
Sales of Personal Goods Unaffected by Global Crisis
Sales on the Swedish market in personal goods grew strongly over the review period, despite the onset of the
global economic crisis in 2008. The only sector that was slightly affected by the global economic crisis was
personal stationery, whose sales declined briefly in 2008 before recovering in 2009. Two factors seem to have
been protecting the Swedish market in personal goods. First, it is small overall, and Swedes appear to be
consuming no more than their basic needs. Second, increased interest in well-known brands has fuelled sales.

JEWELLERY IN SWEDEN
HEADLINES
Over the period 20042009, the sales value of jewellery in Sweden decreased by 8.2% (at a CAGR of -
1.7%), from SEK 4.2 to SEK 3.8 billion. In 2009, however, the sales value increased by 1.3% from the SEK
3.8 billion recorded in 2008.
The Swedish jewellery market is currently undergoing large structural changes as it is increasingly driven
by well-known international brands. Jewellery is more than ever a fashion accessory.
Real jewellery is the larger subsector of the Swedish market, with sales of SEK 3.3 billion in 2009.
Nevertheless, only costume jewellery displayed positive growth, rising by a total of 2.7% during 2004
2009.
In 2009, the leading brand owners on the Swedish jewellery market were the Swedish retailer Iduna AB
(15.6%), together with the manufacturers Schalins Ringar AB (6.9%), Efva Attling Stockholm AB (4.7%)
and Nslund & Jonsson Import AB (4.7%).
Over the forecast period, the Swedish jewellery market is expected to grow by 9.9% (at a CAGR of 1.9%)
to reach SEK 4.2 billion in 2014.
TRENDS
The most important factor influencing the Swedish jewellery market is a strong structural change. In recent
years, well-known international brands have become increasingly important to Swedish consumers in
general. This is apparent in almost all markets, including clothing, furniture and consumer electronics,
where well-known designers are attracting considerable attention. Jewellery retailers report that consumers
previously put their trust in their skills as goldsmiths, but today they believe in brands.
Consumers expect that a well-known international brand, such as Calvin Klein, will maintain a certain level
of quality. The quality need not be exceptional and the product need not be exclusive, but the product must
meet consumers expectations, because the brand has become the symbol of a certain lifestyle and values.
As brands are more important than craftsmanship to the modern Swedish consumer of jewellery, sales on
the Swedish market have fluctuated strongly over the review period. This is because many retailers and
domestic jewellery producers are still living in the past and waiting for this new and whimsical movement
to pass, so they can again focus on what is important to them their own skills in the trade once order is
re-established.
Many Swedish retailers and jewellery producers have failed to notice that they are dealing with new groups
of consumers. Previously, men bought upper-end jewellery pieces as gifts for women, but today many
women buy their own jewellery. Women are not necessarily interested in the upper-end products the
retailers like to sell, which represent their own skill in the trade, since they may prefer buy something
simple they fancy for the moment.
An illustration of the new trend is the Rock brand by Sweden sitas, created by the Swedish TV celebrity
Laila Bagge and the designer sa Ltbom. This is a line of silver jewellery in the form of, for example,
skulls. Goldsmiths regard this as an abomination, while critics, the media and consumers love the brand.
This development also illustrates that the distinction between real and costume jewellery is increasingly
blurred.
The global economic crisis in 2008 does not seem to have had a large effect on the Swedish jewellery
market. Rather, because of the structural changes there have been strong ups and downs over the review
period. In the last few years, the market has been growing slowly with decreasing growth rates, and it
appears to be stabilising as the major retailers learn to deal with the new market conditions.
Most Swedish jewellery retailers offer a wide assortment of neckwear and rings. Rings represented 35%,
neckwear 30%, earrings 20% and wristwear the remaining 15% of the total value sales of jewellery in 2009.

Rings and earrings appear to be gaining in popularity relative to neck- and wristwear, and sales of rings are
currently believed to be driven by anticipation of the royal wedding in Sweden in 2010.
The faster-growing subsector of the Swedish jewellery market is costume jewellery, which is currently
growing slightly faster than real jewellery, although the distinction between these two subsectors is
increasingly blurred as a result of the current trend towards the growth of strong and well-known brands.
Today it is perfectly acceptable for a consumer to buy low-end neckwear made from silver and leather, or
even rubber, if the designer or the brand is well known.
COMPETITIVE LANDSCAPE
The strongest player on the Swedish jewellery market is the Iduna Group, which owns the three largest
retail chains: Guldfynd, Hallbergs Guld and Albrekts Guld. Its own brands Albrekts Guld, Mood, Posh, Q
Frn Guldfynd, and I me my. held a combined market share of 15.6% in 2009.
