New Market Study, "Surface Care in South Africa", Has Been Published

New Consumer Goods market report from Euromonitor International: "Surface Care in South Africa"

 

Boston, MA -- (SBWIRE) -- 07/03/2014 -- South Africa's major cities such as Cape Town and Johannesburg saw strong population growth during the review period, with these cities thus becoming increasingly overcrowded and polluted. Due to escalating house prices and limited access to land and mortgages also resulted in many households becoming increasingly overcrowded. Dust levels rose, while consumers' focus on hygiene and cleanliness was also increased by rising concerns about bacteria and disease. These trends boosted consumers' usage of surface care and thus supported good sales growth.

Competitive Landscape

Unilever was the clear leader in surface care throughout the review period and accounted for 39% value share in 2012. This is due to the strength of its Handy Andy range, which offers a wide range of products and is particularly successful in the dominant product area multi-purpose cleaners, accounting for 60% value share in 2012. The brand offers a range of products for different consumer groups, including affordable Handy Andy Cream and value-added Handy Andy Actifizz Multipurpose Spray. Unilever also dominates scouring agents, where its Vim range accounted for 85% value share in 2012.

Industry Prospects

Surface care will continue to benefit from increasingly busy cities in South Africa during the forecast period. The country's major cities are likely to see their populations grow not only due to rural migration from within South Africa but also due to an influx of immigrant workers from other countries. As a result, cities are expected to become increasingly crowded and polluted, with rising dust levels. There will also be a growing consumer focus on eradicating bacteria in the home as they seek to reduce their exposure to germs and disease. These trends will encourage the more frequent and widespread use of surface care in many South African homes.
