Home Insecticides in Algeria

PROSPECTS

Growth is expected for home insecticides over the forecast period

Ongoing growth in the urban population and increasingly crowded cities are expected to result in further growth in Algeria’s insect population over the forecast period. Urban waste management systems remained underdeveloped at the end of the review period, and have not been identified as a major area for public investment over the forecast period.

Volume growth in home insecticides is expected to slow down

Volume growth in home insecticides is expected to slow down over the forecast period compared with the review period. The slowdown will be due to consumers’ lower disposable incomes, as the economy is not expected to recover rapidly over the forecast period.

Sales of electric insecticides are not projected to pick up

The availability of a widening range of good-quality spray/aerosol insecticides is set to hamper the volume growth of electric insecticides, which are also considerably more expensive. Electric insecticides is thus set to see a negligible volume increase over the forecast period, despite the country’s growing insect population.

COMPETITIVE LANDSCAPE

The Moubyd brand by ALDAR leads home insecticides

State-owned company ALDAR led home insecticides in value terms throughout the review period, including in 2018. The Moubyd brand has been widely available for many years, and offers affordable prices for basic spray/aerosol insecticides.

Groupe Spi-Sophia maintains its second position

Domestic production continues to lead in home insecticides

Domestic players dominate home insecticides. All the top four players are domestic, and accounted for a dominant combined value share in 2018.
