'The DIY & Hardware Store Market in Lebanon is facing stagnant growth due to the country's economic crisis and reduced consumer spending. The floor covering, paint, and wallpaper sub-markets are particularly impacted, as consumers prioritize necessary home repairs over aesthetic improvements. Additionally, the ongoing political instability and Beirut port explosion have further hindered market growth. This has resulted in limited investments and expansions by store owners, leading to a negligible growth rate. The tools & machines and hardware & building materials sub-markets may see some growth as consumers turn to DIY projects to save money. However, the overall market is expected to face challenges until the country's economy stabilizes and consumer confidence improves.' (252)

Local special circumstances: In Lebanon, the DIY & Hardware Store Market is heavily influenced by the country's unique geographical and cultural factors. The mountainous terrain and lack of large retail spaces have led to a proliferation of smaller, specialized hardware stores catering to local needs. Additionally, the country's diverse cultural influences, including French, Ottoman, and Arab, have resulted in a wide variety of DIY and home improvement preferences. The market is also influenced by regulatory factors, such as import restrictions and regulations on construction materials, which can impact product availability and pricing.

Underlying macroeconomic factors: The DIY & Hardware Store Market in Lebanon is primarily driven by macroeconomic factors such as the country's economic growth, consumer confidence, and government policies. The stability of the Lebanese economy and its GDP growth rate have a direct impact on consumer behavior and purchasing power. Fiscal policies, including taxes and subsidies, also play a crucial role in influencing market performance. Furthermore, the current global economic climate and trends in the construction and home improvement industries also affect the demand for DIY and hardware products. As Lebanon continues to recover from the recent economic crisis, the market is expected to bounce back with the support of favorable economic policies and increased consumer spending.
