Men's Grooming in Bolivia

PROSPECTS

Younger men open to male-specific products

The male segment in the country shows different behaviours marked by age and income. In terms of age, older men in Bolivia are more conservative, but new generations are open to external influences, mainly through social media networks.

Changing lifestyles raise awareness of male-specific products

Specialised products for male care remain underdeveloped, however males have shown greater interest in caring for their personal appearance, and this goes hand in hand with the growing tendency to lead healthier lifestyles. It is common in major cities to find offers for packages of male beauty treatments in beauty salons, spas and specialised centres for skin care.

Premium products remain underdeveloped

Premium men’s grooming is expected to develop only slowly over the forecast period, with the performance of higher-end brands to a large extent dependent on the economic situation in the country. Over the review period, only premium fragrances reached a significant size in value terms.

COMPETITIVE LANDSCAPE

Procter & Gamble Bolivia is the leading player in men's grooming

Procter & Gamble Bolivia maintained its leading position in men’s grooming in 2017. Its popularity benefits from widespread distribution in both urban and rural areas as well as its Gillette brand being generally well known among male consumers.

Unilever Andina invests in innovation and advertising to push its sales

Unilever Andina is the second most important company in men’s grooming. The company benefits from wide distribution across the country and several brands targeting the different needs of consumers.
