Boston, MA -- (ReleaseWire) -- 06/16/2014 --Consumption of branded cotton wool products remained marginal in Iran at the end of the review period, although value growth rates have been very impressive in the category in recent years due to rapid price increases. The use of cotton wool/buds/pads is booming in Iran as improvements in health conditions in the country and the availability of cheap Turkish imports have combined with massive domestic reserves of cotton wool in Iran to allow for rapid growth in the category. Although growing and harvesting cotton has become less profitable for Iran's farmers in recent years, there remain huge areas of the country dedicated to cotton production.

Competitive Landscape

In 2013, Arix SpA remained the leading player in cotton wool/buds/pads in Iran in 2013 with a retail value share of 23%, followed by Morvarid-E-Panberes Co and Gol Gooneh Katan Co with retail value shares of 19% and of 10% respectively.
