Bulk and Promotional Offerings Drive Value Sales to Meet Affordability Demands
Tissue and hygiene in Bulgaria sustained robust value growth in 2025, with retail sales rising by 4% to BGN476 million, outpacing the challenges of a declining population and inflationary pressures. The landscape remains attractive due to ongoing expansion in convenience-driven formats, persistent high hygiene standards, and a 5% CAGR is forecast for retail sales through 2030, despite mixed volume trajectories across different areas. The shift towards sustainability advances, as more tissue and hygiene launches incorporate biodegradable or plant-based materials, though reusable products remain niche due to the strong consumer preference for convenience. Retail e-commerce posted the fastest growth among all channels, reaching 5% of value sales in 2025, as shoppers increasingly value online price comparison, broader assortments, and flexible delivery options.
