Executive summary

Economic growth fuels sales

Czech Republic saw a strong economic performance during the review period, with a good growth in disposable income levels for many consumers. This resulted in good growth for household care, with consumers able to purchase a wider range of products and to increase their frequency of purchase. Growth was also supported by the expansion of supermarkets/hypermarkets and discounters across the country, with these offering a widening range of private label and branded household care.

Environmental concerns impact sales in 2007

Czech consumers are increasingly aware of environmental concerns. This resulted in a growing interest in household care that has a lower impact on the environment. There was notably strong growth for concentrated variants in laundry care and air care, while domestic players increasingly stressed their environmentally-friendly production processes.

Multinationals remain strong leaders

Multinationals continued to dominate sales of household care in Czech Republic in 2007, with Henkel, Procter & Gamble and Reckitt Benckiser in the lead. These players have strong marketing and new product development budgets and were therefore able to ensure strong consumer interest in their products. Many Czech consumers meanwhile believe that multinationals offer a higher quality of product. Domestic players meanwhile struggled to compete and thus generally focused on niches and on production for retailers’ private label ranges.

Supermarkets/hypermarkets gain share with wider range

At the start of the review period, supermarkets/hypermarkets lost share in sales of household care due to the strong rise of discounters. Consumers responded enthusiastically to the discount imports and private label ranges offered by discounters. Towards the end of the review period, however, supermarkets/hypermarkets began to expand their range of household care on offer and use more frequent price promotions. Consequently this channel gained share once more in 2007.

Good growth to continue despite economic downturn

Czech Republic is expected to see an economic downturn during the review period, in line with the global economic downturn. Despite this, household care is expected to maintain good growth. Consumers will continue to have greater access to these products, thanks to the spread of supermarkets/hypermarkets and discounters across the country. Many products are also expected to become more affordable, partly due to the continuing growth of private label and partly due to price increases being kept to a minimum by players keen to expand the consumer base of these products.
