Executive summary

Expanding consumer base and expanding consumption of cosmetics and toiletries

Cosmetics and toiletries continued its strong performance in 2008. An expanding consumer base pushed up sales, as more consumers were now more than ever positioned in the market for cosmetics and toiletries products. Traditional products such as toothpaste, shampoo and colour cosmetics continued to drive value sales in the market. Products otherwise regarded as “luxury”, such as fragrances, also accounted for an important proportion of value sales of cosmetics and toiletries. The overall cosmetics and toiletries market was not as affected by unforeseen inflation rates as were many other consumer goods markets. Overall, value sales in the market grew by double digits, capitalising on product innovation and specialisations launched during the review period.

Growth through specialisation

Cosmetics and toiletries in Guatemala continued to become more specialised in 2008. Manufacturers, both international and domestic, have come to realise that consumers are becoming ever more demanding and more educated when it comes to personal care, not to mention more financially capable of affording these products. Specialised sun care products for babies, specific task-performing toothpaste, and a wider variety of long term hair removal products are just a few examples of the level of specialisation that the market is experiencing; enabling companies to tap into market niches and higher disposable incomes.

Market dominated by multinationals

With half a dozen multinational manufacturers competing for leadership, the cosmetics and toiletries market in Guatemala leaves little room for domestic companies to stand out. Higher marketing budgets and international recognition of brands played a huge role in the decision making process in 2008. Globalisation reinforced international brand positioning in consumers’ minds, and this translated into higher demand for brand names and quality products. However, some domestic companies, such as Scentia Perfumeria SA have proven to be fierce competition for multinationals, by applying similar marketing strategies, especially through direct selling.

Direct selling - a viable distribution option

Direct selling continued to gain ground in terms of product distribution in 2008. Companies have found that consumers are willing to be reached at home, school or at work and receive personalised attention, whilst being able to purchase products at a lower retail price. According to industry sources, direct selling “consultants” visit consumers an average of two to four times a month; introducing new products whilst picking up valuable market insight data into preferences and expectations, as consumers give direct feedback during consultations.

Growth through innovation

The expected performance in the forecast period will rely on a stable and expanding consumer base and disposable income levels, as well as product innovation to meet consumer demands. Many categories in cosmetics and toiletries are still emerging, and depend on innovation, offers and effective distribution to attract consumers. It is expected that if remittances from abroad keep injecting higher levels of disposable income into middle and low income households, levels of consumer sophistication will continue to rise, and demand for products otherwise regarded as “luxury” will begin their journey towards staple products in many households.
