Executive summary
Market is still changing after joining the EU in 2004
Slovenia became a member of the EU on 1 May 2004, which has brought or will bring two major changes to the Slovenian market in general: increased competition; and a new currency – the euro – in 2007. Slovenian producers which own the leading brands are now facing increased competition from abroad, mostly in the form of cheaper products and wider ranges of products. Increased competition means not only widened product and brand portfolios but also a decline in unit prices. In addition, the change of currency from the Slovenian tolar to the euro is already showing some trends towards unit price increases due to the rounding up of prices in euros. Nevertheless, the government has implemented preventive measures against rounding up, which should help consumers during the transition period.
Private label and promotional activities lower value sales
As in other markets, disposable paper products is strongly influenced by private label and price promotional activities. Private label has quickly gained volume share but since unit prices are considerably lower compared to branded products, overall value sales were negatively affected over the review period. Slovenian manufacturers are in most cases also the producers of private label products, thereby causing cannibalisation among branded products. To compete with private label’s low prices, retailers and producers try to attract buyers with price promotions, which sometimes lead to price wars in the same sector to gain or retain brand share. Retailers regularly publish promotional offers in periodic leaflets and Slovenian consumers have become bargain hunters for the best deal or price offered.
Slovenians consume more toilet paper than the average Eastern European
In terms of per capita consumption, Slovenians consume more toilet paper than in most other Eastern European countries.
Paloma has played a crucial part in the development of the leading sector in disposable paper products. With over 100 years of tradition, product development and investment in marketing, Paloma has built a strong brand, which held the leading share in terms of retail value sales of toilet paper in 2005 and continues to introduce novelty to disposable paper products in Slovenia.
AFH offers potential for growth
AFH offers potential growth due to the influence of demographic trends and the development of the horeca infrastructure. While an ageing population will drive incontinence products, the development of horeca will positively affect paper tableware, toilet paper and boxed facial tissues. Growth will be higher in volume terms than in value, while new competitors with low-priced products are expected to enter the market and gain substantial share.
