Home care in 2024: The big picture
Sweden’s home care industry saw strong retail current value growth in 2024, though while retail volume growth was solid it lagged behind, reflecting a divergence in the pace of price increases and unit sales. Value growth was primarily driven by price increases, with the rate of these increases slowing as inflationary pressures eased.
2024 key trends
Sustainability emerged as the defining trend in home care in 2024, with both manufacturers and consumers placing greater emphasis on environmental considerations. Companies made visible efforts to address sustainability concerns - particularly through innovations in packaging.
Competitive landscape
Global and national brands retained their stronghold on the market, supported by manufacturers’ strategies to focus on their most recognisable and profitable names. Companies such as Orkla Care and Unilever exemplify this approach, directing their resources towards bolstering leading brands to secure market share and maximise profitability.
Retailing developments
Cost-of-living pressures have driven a shift towards budget-oriented sales channels such as discounters and variety stores. Previously catering primarily to less affluent households, these channels are now attracting a broader customer base.
What next for home care?
Looking ahead, both retail value and volume sales in home care are expected to experience slowed growth over the forecast period. A weak economic outlook will likely sustain cautious household sentiment, keeping price sensitivity high and constraining growth.
