Summary

China's kitchen hob market is a thriving and dynamic environment that reflects the nation's rapid urbanisation, shifting gastronomic tastes, and technical improvements. The Chinese kitchen hob market is a combination of history and contemporary culture, with a rich cultural legacy that is intimately linked to cuisine. As urban dwellings become more compact and modern lifestyles demand efficient yet versatile cooking solutions, the market has responded with a wide array of innovative hob designs and technologies. From bustling metropolitan cities to traditional rural areas, the Chinese kitchen hob market caters to diverse consumer needs, whether it's accommodating time-honoured cooking techniques, harnessing cutting-edge induction technology, or embracing the art of communal dining. This market narrative unfolds against a backdrop of Chinese culinary traditions, emphasising the importance of family gatherings, elaborate meals, and the appreciation of regional flavours. The China kitchen hob market serves as a reflection of the nation's quest to seamlessly blend its cultural heritage with the conveniences of the contemporary world, offering a compelling blend of functionality, design, and culinary sophistication. In China, meals are often seen as a time for family and friends to gather and share. Kitchen hobs that allow for large-scale cooking and communal dining experiences are favoured. Many Chinese households include multiple generations living under one roof. Kitchen hobs that cater to a variety of cooking preferences and dietary needs are essential in such environments.

According to the research report "China Kitchen Hobs Market Overview, 2028," published by Bonafide Research, the China Kitchen Hobs Market was valued at more than USD 4 Billion in 2022. China's rapid urbanisation has led to smaller living spaces, particularly in urban areas. As a result, there's a growing demand for kitchen hobs that are compact, space-efficient, and designed to maximise functionality within limited kitchen layouts. China boasts a diverse culinary landscape with regional dishes and cooking methods. Kitchen hobs that provide versatility, precise temperature control, and various cooking options accommodate the wide range of culinary preferences across the country. As disposable incomes increase, more Chinese households are investing in home renovations and upgrades, including modernising their kitchens with new kitchen hobs. Based on types, there are free-standing kitchen hobs and built-in kitchen hobs. In China, the free-standing Kitchen hob is the leading market. Chinese cooking often involves using multiple burners simultaneously, such as stir-frying vegetables while simmering a sauce. Free-standing hobs with multiple burners enable these traditional cooking methods. In some regions of China, outdoor cooking and barbecues are popular. Free-standing hobs can be used outdoors, accommodating this cultural practise. Just as in other parts of the world, smart technology was making its way into the Chinese kitchen. Smart free-standing hobs are controlled remotely via smartphone apps, allowing users to adjust settings, monitor cooking progress, and receive notifications. The trend towards creating smart homes extended to the kitchen. Free-standing hobs could be integrated into larger smart home ecosystems, allowing for coordinated control and automation of various appliances. As well, voice-activated controls were emerging as a convenient way to interact with kitchen appliances, including free-standing hobs. Voice integration allowed for hands-free operation.

Based on the ignition types, which include Gas/liquid fuel and electric, gas/liquid fuel is leading the market. Many traditional Chinese dishes require open-flame cooking, which gas hobs accommodate well. The visual appeal and control over the flame align with the artistry of Chinese cooking. Gas hobs offer fast heat-up times and immediate temperature adjustments, which are highly valued in Chinese cooking that involves quick stir-frying and precise control of heat levels. While embracing modern appliances, many Chinese households still prefer to maintain traditional cooking methods. Gas hobs offer a bridge between these preferences. The tactile experience of controlling the flame and the immediate response of gas hobs offer a level of cooking control that resonates with Chinese culinary practises. Gas or liquid fuel tends to be more affordable than some other energy sources, making gas hobs an attractive option for a wide range of consumers. The Chinese government often sets energy efficiency standards for appliances, including kitchen hobs. These standards aim to encourage the use of energy-efficient technologies and reduce the environmental impact of household appliances, including gas-powered hobs. China has been actively promoting the use of renewable energy sources, such as biogas and natural gas, to reduce reliance on traditional fossil fuels. This could impact the availability and popularity of gas-powered kitchen hobs.

Four Burners, Two Burners, Three Burners, Five burners, and Six Burners are segmented as the Burner/Induction Zone. In China, the three-burner hob is a growing market. Three-burner hobs provide a balance between space efficiency and cooking capacity. They offer enough cooking zones to simultaneously prepare multiple dishes, catering to Chinese cooking styles that often involve preparing multiple dishes in a single meal. Chinese culture places a strong emphasis on family meals and communal dining. Three-burner hobs allow families to prepare a variety of dishes simultaneously, which is particularly useful during family gatherings and events. Based on distribution channels, which include Specialty retail stores, hypermarkets and supermarkets, multi-brand stores, and online channels, Specialty retail stores have the highest market share. Specialty retail stores often focus exclusively on kitchen appliances and related products. This specialisation enables them to have in-depth knowledge about various types of kitchen hobs, their features, and their suitability for different cooking needs. Store staff in specialty retail outlets is usually well-trained and knowledgeable about the products they sell. They can provide personalised recommendations based on the customer's cooking habits, kitchen layout, and specific needs.

The approach of the report:

This report consists of a combined approach of primary and secondary research. Initially, secondary research was used to get an understanding of the market and list the companies that are present in it. The secondary research consists of third-party sources such as press releases, annual reports of companies, and government-generated reports and databases. After gathering the data from secondary sources, primary research was conducted by conducting telephone interviews with the leading players about how the market is functioning and then conducting trade calls with dealers and distributors of the market. Post this; we have started making primary calls to consumers by equally segmenting them in regional aspects, tier aspects, age group, and gender. Once we have primary data with us, we can start verifying the details obtained from secondary sources.

Intended audience
