Executive summary
Sustained growth expands the market
In 2007, the household care market in Guatemala performed above the growth rates experienced over the review period. Macroeconomic stability and steady growth allowed more consumers to diversify their consumption patterns and purchase cleaning products which had previously been financially out of reach for the majority of the Guatemalan population. Public investment in infrastructure not only provided a positive environment for foreign investment, but also led to a rise in the rate of household electrification. This generated greater demand for washing machines and dishwashers, which are vital for the household care market to mature.
Emerging demand for product segmentation
Laundry care, specifically powder detergents, continued to represent the majority of sales value in 2007. This reflects the economic limitations still prevalent amongst the majority of households in Guatemala. Price remained the primary purchasing determinant for consumers, and limited the growth of more sophisticated household care products. However, there was the emergence of a segment of the population increasingly demanding more mature products. These households are generally in the urban areas of the country.
The market is fragmented and competitive
Multinationals continued to lead the household care market in 2007. Their clout in terms of their ability to mobilise financial resources directed towards product distribution and promotion allowed them to maintain their market share. No single manufacturer made substantial gains in terms of company share in 2007. The market remained fragmented amongst a handful of multinationals and a few domestic firms who succeeded in a limited number of categories. There is no strong likelihood that a domestic manufacturer will emerge in the short term which will be able to compete in the existing market.
Consolidation of distribution continues
Supermarket/hypermarkets continued to lead the distribution of household care products. In 2007, over half of all retail value sales were through this channel. Supermarkets/hypermarkets provide convenience and low prices to consumers due to their ability to maintain high inventories of a variety of goods. The success of supermarkets/hypermarkets continued to negatively affect independent small grocers. Independent outlets conceded market share to supermarket/hypermarkets over the review period.
Growth through product development and innovation
The household care market will continue to expand over the forecast period, but at slower rates to those achieved over the review period. Macroeconomic stability will be vital for the success of the market, and the benefits of this stability will need to be appropriately invested in product development and innovation. This innovation and investment will largely rest on the shoulders of the multinationals, which have global market experience and the financial resources to effectively generate interest in the industry.
