↓ -1%Dyson reported a £440 million sales decline, with revenues falling from £6.57 billion to £6.13 billion last year. The company attributed the drop to US tariffs imposed by Donald Trump on Malaysian and Philippine imports, where Dyson manufactures products, alongside weak consumer confidence and currency fluctuations. President Trump had imposed tariffs of up to 24% on Malaysian imports, later reduced to 19%. Dyson raised US prices last year citing "global economic conditions". Despite lower revenues, operating profits increased from £520 million to £600 million following cost reductions, including cutting around 1,000 UK roles in mid-2024. The company launched a record number of products and invested £400 million in research and development. This marks the second consecutive year of declining sales after 22 years of continuous growth.
Dyson has launched the Spot+Scrub Ai, its first robotic vacuum cleaner capable of both wet and dry cleaning, priced at $1,199. The device uses AI-powered vision and green illumination to detect and identify nearly 200 types of household substances and objects, performing up to 15 focused cleaning passes over stains until they are removed. The robot features a self-cleaning microfiber wet roller with a 12-point hydration system that delivers fresh heated water whilst cleaning. The roller cleans itself on every rotation and extends 1.6 inches to reach edges and skirting boards. The machine uses LiDAR and AI vision for navigation and mapping, automatically labelling rooms through the MyDyson app. Its bagless cyclonic dock hygienically empties dry debris using 10 Dyson root cyclones, with capacity for up to 100 days.
Dyson Beauty has launched Dyson Amino leave-in scalp bubble treatment, its first scalp care product, priced at $54.99. The foaming formula is clinically proven to reduce hair loss by 63%, excess oils by 62%, and visible flakes by 88%. The treatment features Dyson Amino11 blend, combining barley grown on Dyson Farming with 11 amino acids to support scalp barrier function. It includes skincare ingredients like niacinamide, Ectoin Natural and caffeine in a lightweight, non-greasy foam-to-serum formula. Dyson Farming, the UK's largest farming business spanning 36,000 acres, cultivates the barley used in the formulation. The product joins Dyson's expanding beauty range, which now includes styling, conditioning and scalp care formulations designed to work with its hair care technology. The treatment is available at Dyson Demo stores, Dyson.com and select retailers.
As inflation rates continue to rise, retailers continue to face the challenge of providing consumers with more affordable price points for products they both want and need. But instead of calling it a knockoff, a fake or a cheaper alternative, a younger cohort of consumers have decided to give it a trendy name — a dupe. . Difference Between Dupes and Fakes. Dupes are the more affordable option to the high-end product and come at a fraction of the cost, making them an attractive to consumers who are looking for alternatives. Fakes, on the other hand, are products that are designed to look exactly like a higher-end product, often with logos or branding that is identical or very similar.
Dyson today launches the new Dyson V15 Detect handheld vacuum, as well as a Pet Grooming Kit and a Detail Cleaning Kit that are backward compatible with previous vacuum models.
