Home care in 2024: The big picture
Home care showed positive value gains in Singapore in 2024, at a slightly higher rate than seen over the recent review period, and inching closer to the level of value growth seen in 2019-2020. Retail volume, meanwhile, remains in a small slump – albeit at a rate which is recovering from a steeper dip seen in 2023.
2024 key trends
Growing environmental consciousness has boosted demand for eco-friendly, biodegradable, non-toxic, and refillable home care products. Indeed, a growing number of consumers are seeking “greener” alternatives for everyday cleaning.
Competitive landscape
The leading overall players in home care in Singapore are the big global names, Procter & Gamble, SC Johnson & Son, Reckitt Benckiser, and Unilever. However, more locally, Lion Corp (S) Pte Ltd, which is owned by Lion Corporation Japan, comes in second company place in overall terms.
Retailing developments
Supermarkets maintains the largest distribution share in home care overall, with small local grocers also maintaining a stable share. Chains such as the aforementioned FairPrice, which includes supermarkets and convenience stores, is cited as a key retailer, along with supermarket chains Cold Storage, and Sheng Siong.
What next for home care?
Both value and volume sales of home care are expected to increase in Singapore over the forecast period. Sustainability trends are set to remain strong, with a growing emphasis on eco-friendly options such as refill stations and zero-waste products, as consumers increasingly prioritise environmental responsibility.
