Home care in 2024: The big picture
In 2024, home care in Switzerland recorded positive retail value growth of 1%, while retail volume sales saw a marginal decline. While price points stabilised, persistent international instability and ongoing pressures from packaging, energy, transport costs, and supply chain disruptions, led prices to remain elevated.
2024 key trends
Eco-friendly formulations continued to be a key priority for Swiss consumers and manufacturers in 2024, with innovations such as laundry sheets being a clear example of this growing trend. Sustainable packaging also gained significant traction, driven by the introduction of recyclable packaging, reduced packaging, and biodegradable plastics, all aimed at reducing the product's environmental impact.
Competitive landscape
Private label continued to lead the home care market in 2024, driven by a broad range of products that catered to various price points and increasingly focused on sustainability. As Swiss consumers' purchasing power waned, there was a clear shift towards more affordable private label brands, with many steering away from pricier premium options in favour of better value.
Retailing developments
Store-based grocery retailers, including supermarkets, hypermarkets, and discounters, maintained a dominant position in the home care market in Switzerland in 2024. These channels remained the primary venues for major promotions, attracting consumers seeking value.
What next for home care?
Despite several potential challenges, the outlook for the home care market remains positive over the forecast period. Rising production costs, driven by higher material prices and increased transport expenses, are expected to pressure margins.
