Hayat Kimya and Al Bardi Paper Mill Co Sae (Fine) Egypt Leverages Local Production to Overcome Import and Currency Volatility
Tissue and hygiene in Egypt demonstrated resilient value growth in 2025, as retail current value reached EGP58 billion with an 9% value growth increase, driven by unique pressures from rapid currency depreciation and high inflation. The landscape is defined by a pronounced shift towards value-focused purchasing, with local production and domestic supply chains enabling companies to maintain stable prices and reliable availability, despite import cost volatility. Brands are able to succeed by prioritising affordability, innovation in bulk and family pack formats, and by integrating health and wellness features, such as dermatological testing and skin-friendly claims, which are now baseline requirements. The ongoing expansion of digital channels facilitates broader access to promotions and reinforces bulk-buying habits, particularly among large and multi-child households. Competitive advantages can be secured by aligning product innovation, pricing strategy, and channel integration to serve the needs of inflation-weary, price-conscious consumers.
