Executive summary

Demand is growing

The demand for disposable paper products continued to grow in Hungary in 2008. Most categories recorded retail volume and value growth. Kitchen towels registered the fastest retail volume and current value growth in 2008, while napkins suffered strong decreases. The growth in kitchen towels was partly made at the expense of napkins. Retail volume and value sales grew at a slower rate than in 2007.

Kitchen towels on top

Kitchen towels is the most dynamic category in disposable paper products. The penetration of kitchen towels had reached almost all households by the end of 2008. The extension of premium products is offering kitchen towel manufacturers further opportunities for growth. The success of kitchen towels highlights a key trend in disposable paper products, namely that the domestic industry is reaching Western standards in terms of usage habits.

Private label strength

Private label led disposable paper products in 2008. Private label is especially strong in toilet paper, tissues, kitchen towels, and paper tableware. Private label products offer a good quality/price ratio in categories where consumer trust is a must such as nappies/diapers/pants and incontinence products.

Supermarkets/hypermarkets vs parapharmacies/drugstores

Supermarkets/hypermarkets and parapharmacies/drugstores are the leading distribution formats for disposable paper products in Hungary. Supermarkets/hypermarkets enjoy competitive advantages through greater shelf space and wider assortments. Parapharmacies/drugstores are preferred by consumers looking for premium private label. Both distribution formats offer convenience benefits such as one-stop shopping opportunities (supermarkets/hypermarkets) or neighbourhood locations (parapharmacies/drugstores). One of the key accelerators of retailing in Hungary is supermarkets/hypermarkets. This retail format has developed dynamically in the last 15 years, growing strongly in terms of outlets and sales of food and non-food products.

Developing premium products

Consumer loyalty to brands offering high-quality and premium products remains a key trend in sanitary protection. Private label manufacturers have responded to the demand for premium products in kitchen towels, tissues and toilet paper. The thickness and quality of such products increased strongly in 2007 and 2008.
