PROSPECTS AND OPPORTUNITIES
Demand is set to increase in the coming years
Analgesics are expected to continue growing over the forecast period, driven by the country’s ageing population, persistent trends in self-medication, and rising sedentary working patterns. Seasonal waves of flu and viral infections will also support demand, with fever and pain relief remaining core drivers.
Strong e-commerce performance expected
Premiumisation is expected to intensify, as product innovation continues to deliver improved formulations, more convenient formats and greater perceived quality. New delivery methods, including soft capsules, gels and patches, will gain visibility and distribution.
Bulgarians more likely to stock up
Growing health awareness will also shape future demand, with more consumers adopting a proactive approach to managing their wellbeing. Stocking up on analgesics will become more common, particularly in households with children or elderly members.
