Premiumisation Drives Value Growth as Inflation Moderates
Tissue and hygiene in Guatemala in 2025 demonstrated stable expansion, underpinned by the country’s steady economic growth, rising consumer expenditure, and population increase. The environment is increasingly attractive for both established and new entrants, as the balance of moderate inflation at 2%, expanding middle-class, and gradual shift in consumer preferences support ongoing volume and value gains, even as growth rates soften from previous highs. Key drivers include pronounced innovation in retail tissue and menstrual care, the rise of performance-focused premium launches and the emergence of niche offerings, all of which highlight opportunities for differentiation in a market where price sensitivity remains high. Brands seeking success should prioritise innovation that enhances comfort and efficiency, leverage bundling and bulk strategies, and optimise distribution through both traditional and modern channels, while responding to the growing, though still secondary, interest in eco-friendly alternatives. The landscape is becoming more competitive as private label and regional manufacturers gain share, and channel diversification accelerates with warehouse clubs and e-commerce, requiring continuous adaptation to shifting shopper behaviours and the evolving competitive set.
