Shift Towards Higher-Priced, Better-Quality Products Drives Value Growth
Tissue and hygiene in Slovakia recorded 6% current value growth for retail sales of EUR305 million in 2025, despite economic headwinds and a VAT increase, outperforming many regional peers where growth was more volume-led and less premium-focused. This environment is increasingly attractive for brands that can deliver innovative, high-quality and sustainable solutions, as Slovak consumers are willing to pay more for products that meet elevated standards of wellness and environmental responsibility, even as overall demand moderates. Success now hinges on the ability to combine operational efficiency, packaging redesign and clear sustainability credentials with tailored offerings for an ageing population and the rising urban middle class; brands that focus on wellness, convenience and digital accessibility while building trust through transparency and functional differentiation are best positioned to capture future growth.
