Executive summary

Good growth supported by rising income levels

Disposable paper products saw continuing good growth in current value sales throughout the review period. This was supported by the country’s strong economic performance, which created higher disposable income levels and enabled consumers to afford more disposable paper products. Growth was also supported by widening distribution, as supermarkets/hypermarkets and discounters continued to increase their presence in the country.

Private label products support volume growth

There was strong growth in private label disposable paper products during the review period, with this continuing in 2007. An increasing range of private label products began to be offered by discounters and supermarkets/hypermarkets, with these attracting consumers due to their low price. However, the low price of private label products constrained constant value growth and eroded unit prices.

Leading multinationals gain due to polarisation

Procter & Gamble-Rakona as and Kimberly-Clark as remained the leaders in 2007, being the only two players with a double-digit value share in overall disposable paper products. These players gained further share in 2007 over the previous year, with this linked to increasing polarisation. Customers are increasingly splitting into quality-conscious consumers, who are trading up to the leading global brands and value-added products, and price-sensitive consumers. The latter group is trading down to affordably priced private label and basic products, simply seeking the lowest possible price.

Shift to larger grocery retailers

During the review period, there was a marked shift in the shopping patterns of Czech consumers for disposable paper products. Consumers moved away from purchasing these products at small grocery retailers when required. Instead, they increasingly purchased disposable paper products in bulk from large grocery retailers on a regular basis. This trend was further encouraged by the widening range of private label disposable paper products available from discounters and supermarkets/hypermarkets, along with these channels continuing to expand outlet volume across the country.

Good growth to continue as consumers demand convenience

Disposable paper products is expected to continue to see good growth during the forecast period. Busy lifestyles are expected to result in Czech consumers increasingly opting for the convenience of disposable paper products instead of textile alternatives, particularly in urban areas. Players will also drive growth by offering value-added innovation or by focusing on affordable pricing and price promotions. The continuing growth of private label is also expected to improve sales to price-sensitive consumers during the forecast period.
