Increased number of Households and Nuclear Family: The retail channel accounts for the majority of the total sales volume of mattresses in South Africa during 2018 and is majorly directed towards home users. In accordance with the SACS (South Africa Community Survey) 2018, the number of formal dwellings has increased from 65.1% to 81.1% between 1996 and 2018. The average household size in South Africa was observed to reduce from 4.5 to 3.3 thus, resulting in increasing nuclear families which are driving the demand for mattresses in the country. Household growth has outpaced population growth. The number of households has risen by 2.4% per annum over the same period, a growth of 48.9% over the period while the population has grown by 1.3% per year over the period 2002-2018.

Customizable mattresses in South Africa is basically driven by more convenience level, overall sleep quality, growing demand for interior designing and other sleep-related factors. These mattresses are structurally modified to conform to consumer physical needs keeping in mind their height, weight, age, body shape, and others are made available by mattress companies. The mattresses are customized in accordance with consumer expectations, therefore allowing one mattress to have different color tones, size, design, and layers. The technologies used in foreign countries to produce mattresses in order to meet quality standards are gaining popularity in South Africa thus, leading to high imports of customized mattresses from major countries.

Growing awareness of sleep health is causing South Africans to spend an enormous amount on a mattress purchase. There are a number of players in the market ranging from mass segment mattresses to the premium luxury segment. The players operating in the premium segment are Simmons, Sealy, KingKoil, Cloud nine and Slumberland, and others. The Maestro mattresses range from ZAR 180,000-350,000 and is one of the most expensive and prominent brands within South Africa. The Maestro mattress is assembled by hand in Switzerland and is imported into South Africa. It is filled with materials such as blond horsehair, alpaca wool, camel wool, and others. The customer can have the mattress customized as per his/her wish. Apart from that, multiple foam and latex mattresses are also imported into South Africa.

Increasing Number of Hotel Rooms: The South African tourism industry is one of the contributors to the country’s GDP and is one of the primary reasons as to why the government is pushing tourism. The total number of hotel rooms within South Africa was observed to increase from 81,200 in 2013 to 81,700 during 2018 and is further forecasted to grow in the near future.
