Volume Stability and Premiumisation Drive Growth Despite Economic Challenges
Home care sales in Argentina remained stable in retail volume terms in 2025 but recorded strong value growth, driven by inflationary pressures despite a challenging economic environment and double-digit inflation. Companies invested in premiumisation and sustainability, with Unilever's Cif brand relaunch under the BioActive concept becoming the best-performing brand and driving exceptional air care performance. Evolving product formats, including plastic pouches, concentrated formulations and gel formats gained popularity as consumers sought affordable options. The removal of import barriers and the discontinuation of Precios Justos reshaped distribution dynamics, strengthening small local grocers relative to modern retail. The competitive landscape remained concentrated, with market leadership bolstered by strong category positions and strategic acquisitions.
