Tissue and hygiene in 2024: The big picture
It was a positive picture for tissue and hygiene in the Dominican Republic in 2024, with a healthy increase in current value sales and a more moderate increase in volume sales. Lower inflation and an improving economy supported sales.
2024 key trends
Nappies/diapers/pants accounted for most value sales within tissue and hygiene in the Dominican Republic. This is because it has a higher average price than most other products within retail tissue and is perceived as essential.
Competitive landscape
Global player Kimberly-Clark continued to lead the competitive landscape, accounting for over a quarter of value share. The company has been in the Dominican Republic for nearly 60 years and it has a wide distribution network, across both modern grocery retailers and small local grocers (colmados).
Retail developments
Modern grocery retailers, and in particular hypermarkets and supermarkets, continued to be the main distribution channel for retail tissue in 2024. However, colmados also continued to be significant, and registered higher value growth than modern grocery retailers.
What next for tissue and hygiene?
The outlook for the economy is bright over the forecast period, with the IMF predicting that the Dominican Republic will have one of the highest GDP growth rates in the Central American and Caribbean region, with foreign direct investment, tourism and remittances driving this growth.
