Baby and child-specific products saw solid current value and retail volume growth in 2021. Demand for baby and child-specific products is less vulnerable to economic conditions, due to the essential nature of such products.
Even though baby and child-specific products saw noticeable current value growth in 2021, this was largely due to the growing interest in premium baby and child-specific products. In 2021, Romania recorded the lowest birth rate in the century.
Johnson & Johnson Romania has led baby and child-specific products for many years and continued to do so in 2021. Due to a recent lawsuit involving Johnson & Johnson Romania’s baby powder, Romanian consumers have lost some trust in the category leader, leading to accelerated decline of sales and share in 2021 for the company.
Whilst chemists/pharmacies is expected to remain the main distribution channel for baby and child-specific products, e-commerce is set to show the most dynamic growth in the coming years. The channel is benefitting from a boom in new online businesses entering baby and child-specific products, such as Bebe Tei and Farmacia Tei, and the growing popularity of shopping online amongst Romanian consumers.
Over the forecast period, it is expected that there will be higher demand for products with natural and organic formulations. Parents in Romania are becoming increasingly mindful of the products they are purchasing for their babies and children, prioritising products that are labelled as being natural.
In recent years, the birth rate has been falling in Romania, with no change to this expected over the forecast period. This is due to young couples increasingly postponing the decision to start a family or have children.
