S Group and Kesko Drive Private Label Resilience through Pricing
Finland’s tissue and hygiene market in 2025 demonstrates resilience and steady value progression, outpacing most Western European peers in maintaining consumer loyalty to trusted brands and private label amid a backdrop of modest economic growth and high cost sensitivity. The landscape remains highly consolidated, with leading companies sustaining market share through diversified portfolios, operational reliability and a strong emphasis on sustainability and local sourcing, while private label intensifies price competition and enhances affordability. Long-term attractiveness is underpinned by robust per-capita usage, demographic tailwinds and the integration of stringent quality, safety and environmental expectations as non-negotiable purchase drivers. Success in this environment requires brands to balance price competitiveness with responsible sourcing and clean wellness credentials, optimise pack sizes and pricing architecture, and capitalise on the dual structure of premium and private label. Strategic focus on supply security, visible local production and alignment with evolving consumer priorities will be essential to defend share and capture incremental value growth in a mature, highly penetrated setting.
