Executive summary

New products invigorate a slow market

2008 saw a revival in disposable paper product sales. Players introduced newly developed products in standard towels, toilet paper and kitchen towels, but the greatest level of product development was seen in tissues, a reflection of greater consumer spending power in Tunisia. Products were developed to better identify with different consumer groups, such as boxed tissues featuring horoscope logos and floral printed toilet paper for those individuals looking for attractive products for use in their homes.

Two large companies dominate the market

Disposable paper products is dominated by local players, all producing their products locally. Using multinational partnership agreements with foreign companies, domestic players were able to maintain quality production procedures and continuous research and development to maintain a strong position for their brands in the local market as well as in North Africa. Two of the leading companies are Sancella SA and Société d'Articles Hygiéniques Sarl (SAH), together accounting for over a 70% market share.

Modern retailing still relatively undeveloped

Modern retailing is still relatively undeveloped, but its expansion is set to continue at a steady pace as major retailers are posting double-digit revenue growth. French retailers (Carrefour and Casino) constitute the only foreign presence so far. The major players in modern retailing are Group UTIC (Carrefour and Champion hypermarkets) Group Mabrouk (Géant hypermarket and Monoprix supermarket chain licensed by the French retailer Casino), Magasin Général, a state-owned supermarket chain, Promogros, a privately-owned supermarket chain, and Bonprix, which has recently been bought by Group UTIC to be transferred to Champion hypermarkets.

While independent retailers account for nearly 90% of total retail outlets, the availability of different brands at each retailer is limited, and one will usually find one company’s products available in each retailer. This is simply due to limited shelf space.

Better performance expected over the forecast period

For a market in which some products are still considered as luxuries for the average Tunisian consumer, and which could be easily replaced by a cloth and water, or one product can have multiple uses, market players are expected to encourage consumers to try out more products and purchase them through promotional offers, such as extra quantities for no additional charge. Constant value growth will remain around the 2% over the forecast period.
