Home & living e-commerce benchmarks

Monthly medians of every panel metric for direct-to-consumer brands in home & living: kitchen, decor, garden, home fragrance, bedding and tableware. Computed from the real ad spend, first-party tracking and Shopify orders of a subset of adtribute customers, and set against the median across all industries.

Headline medians

As of September 2026, the home & living medians in our panel are a blended CAC of €54.55 per new customer, a MER of 5.30, a shop conversion rate of 1.57% and an average order value of €125.92. On Meta, 1,000 impressions cost €11.30 and a link click €1.08.

Each median is computed on its own panel, so together they describe the industry, not one brand that has all of them.

What stands out

  • Of the four industries, home & living has the highest average order value (€125.92 against €79.04 across all industries), the highest Meta Ads ROAS on last touch (1.49 against 1.01 across all industries) and the highest Google Ads cost per click (€0.76 against €0.56 across all industries).
  • Read as a chain: Meta impressions cost 11% less than across all industries, shoppers click 10% less often, the shop converts 1.57% of sessions against 2.14%, and blended CAC ends at €54.55, 13% above the all-industries median of €48.38.
  • At the median basket of €125.92 and a 60 percent gross margin, a first order earns about €75.55 of gross profit against a blended CAC of €54.55, so the first order already pays back acquisition. 14.29% of new customers order again within 90 days (13.45% across all industries).
  • The largest change on a year earlier is in Meta Ads CPM: up 25%, to €11.30.

How these benchmarks are built

Every value applies the methodology of the all-industries benchmarks to one industry: per-brand monthly values, a balanced panel per metric, months distorted by bulk order imports or tracking outages removed, and the median estimated as a weighted blend of all brands in the cut, so no figure is any single brand's number. Industry figures are medians only, with no quartile bands, and the number of brands and panel membership are never disclosed.
