Executive summary

Consumption rises in all socio-economic segments

Sales of household care products, as other consumables, increased during 2007, mainly due to the increase in purchasing power as a consequence of increasing economic stability in the country during the review period. However, many categories in this market, such as laundry aids, fabric softeners, bleach, air care and insecticides, amongst others are not yet well developed in Peru. Currently, they are aimed towards socio-economic segments with medium and high purchasing power, which invest in complementary products for household care. Likewise, it is important to mention that important expansion has taken place in sales outlets, not only in major cities, but also in the provinces. On the other hand, development of economy products and smaller presentations is starting to allow these products to enter into the segments with lower purchasing power in the country. Finally, despite the fact that the household care market is increasing, it is almost completely dominated by five companies; three multinationals and two domestic companies.

Many housewives are more interested in new and specialised products

Increasing consumption has introduced the use of more specialised products for household care, and displaced the use of the more traditional substitutes. On the other hand, there was a significant change in the traditional profile of housewives, the target consumer of these products. Housewives now not only devote themselves to domestic chores, but also to employed labour activities, especially in urban areas. This led to an improvement in family incomes and to increased demand for better quality household care products. There is greater emphasis on the part of consumers about using better quality products, which make domestic tasks easier. Consumers are searching for products with more additives which are better for skin care, which contain fewer contaminants and are more effective so make washing and cleaning easier.

Domestic companies improve their product portfolio strategies

The household care market is dominated by five companies; Procter and Gamble Perú SRL, Intradevco Industrial SA, Alicorp SAA, Clorox Perú SA and SC Johnson & Son del Perú SA. Intradevco Industrial, with its popular brand Sapolio, was the company which saw the most significant increase in sales and market share in 2007, going from 13% in 2006 to 15% in 2007. Since its launch in 1998, Sapolio has used its status as a domestic product to promote the consumption of Peruvian products, as a way of improving the unemployment situation in Peru, and managing to displace leading multinational brands in the process. This campaign had a favourable influence amongst housewives and male consumers alike, who were led to believe that their purchasing decision was important for generating more employment.

Bodegas represents the major distribution channel

Traditional sales channels, namely grocery retailers and marketplaces, are currently the main sales distribution channels in the Peruvian market, due mainly to their proximity to the population, as well as their distribution at a domestic level. Small and economy presentations for daily use are the preferred options in these outlets. On the other hand, supermarkets/hypermarkets is continuously increasing its reach, monopolising a very important market thanks to the major spread in Lima’s developing zones and in the provinces of Peru. Offers and large presentations are mostly bought by consumers in these channels.

Future growth in all categories based on higher quality products

Demand in all categories within household care will increase in the forecast period as a direct consequence of an increase in the purchasing power of the population, in addition to these products spreading to medium and lower income segments. These segments are found, for instance, in zones in the capital and provinces with dynamism in the economy. Likewise, the spread of products will be through more economy and smaller presentations in traditional channels, within easy reach of consumers. In the forecast period, Peruvian consumers, mainly housewives, will have a major interest in household care products which encourage skin and hand care and will be less contaminating. The classic concept of the traditional housewife is changing; in the forecast period it is expected that Peruvian women will not only be devoted to domestic chores, but will also generate income for the family. With higher incomes, housewives, as the main family shoppers, will search for and choose improved products with better quality.
