PROSPECTS

Further segmentation and specialisation within sanitary protection

As local women of all ages continue to pay attention to improving their intimate hygiene practices to feel more confident and protected, the offer of more specialised sanitary protection products continues to gain momentum across a larger base of middle- and high-income consumers. In this context, there continues to be dynamic growth in different types of tampons, and sports-related and night-time products.

New development opportunities will emerge over the forecast period

As a broader base of younger middle and high-income consumers become more informed and concerned about their intimate hygiene practices, new added alternatives will continue to emerge over the forecast period, using natural additives, such as essential oils and probiotics, capable of supporting a healthier microorganism environment.

Cheaper options increasingly available

Sanitary protection is seeing an increased presence of more affordable value options, such as Walmart’s private label brand, which are targeting more mature women who are interested in additional savings and an acceptable performance. The leading players are responding with more aggressive value pack products and point-of-sale campaigns in modern grocery retailers to maintain sales and support brand awareness.

COMPETITIVE LANDSCAPE

Established international players remain ahead in sales

Benefiting from strong brand recognition and marketing expertise, the major global players Essity Centroamérica SA (Saba) and Kimberly Clark Costa Rica SA (Kotex) remained ahead in value sales in 2018. They have a strong presence in most modern and traditional grocery retailers, as well as in chemists/pharmacies,.

Walmart’s private label gains share

In spite of the strong position held by leading brands such as Saba and Kotex, Walmart’s private label brand Equate continues to gain momentum with its sanitary protection offerings. It has increased its product range, and benefits from its privileged shelf space and capacity to provide more competitive unit prices than other branded alternatives.

New performance expectations will support sales of new added-value products

As a broader base of local women have access to higher levels of disposable income, it is anticipated that new added-value products, such as tampons, ultra-absorbent slim towels and natural enhanced alternatives will gain sales amongst a rising base of middle- and high-income women. The availability of more natural and less invasive alternatives that offer multiple functional and high-performance claims is anticipated to encourage a broader base of younger millennial consumers to shift towards such options over the forecast period.
