Beyond Necessity: Global Bath and Shower Market Moves Upscale for Growth

The steady global progress of the bath and shower category masks more dynamic growth in developing regions. Latin America, in particular Brazil, will continue to be the category’s growth story. Changing hygiene habits are placing the emphasis on showering, with a corresponding contraction in bath-related products. Across the board, innovation will be focused on product functionality and natural based ingredients to stimulate future growth in this largely mature market.

Bath and shower products are in the main regarded as necessities, with growth remaining steady. In 2010, a slight slackening of pace was in part due to the absence of bird flu induced sales with growth returning to pre-epidemic levels.

Brazil will deliver over a quarter of global growth in the bath and shower market between 2010 and 2015 (similarly to 2005-2010.) This is as much as China and India together, with all three countries central to future growth.

Global Bath & Shower Market

The desire for natural products is increasing, with consumers looking for products that not only offer natural and safe ingredients, but also deliver in terms of functionality.
Intimate hygiene is the fastest growing product category within bath and shower but is patchy in its development, relying on women seeing it as central to their hygiene routine.

* Get a detailed picture of the Beauty and Personal Care market;
* Pinpoint growth sectors and identify factors driving change;
* Understand the competitive environment, the market’s major players and leading brands;
* Use five-year forecasts to assess how the market is predicted to develop.

Retailing in Bosnia-Herzegovina

According to trade sources, GDP growth in Bosnia-Herzegovina in 2011 was the strongest it had been in three years. The economy gradually began to exit from the global economic recession in 2011; however the majority of consumers were not truly aware of the signs of recovery. Nevertheless, many companies were aware as they gained easier access to funding and new opportunities for growth became apparent, for example discounters. The economic recession prompted most consumers to change their shopping patterns, boosting the popularity of private label products and leading to increased interest in price-focused advertising and promotions. While these effects of the recession are expected to continue to influence the purchasing habits of consumers in the short term, in 2011 the economic recession clearly started to ease off.

UK Retail Forecasts & Sector Summaries to 2015

With average growth of just 1.9% to 2015, only the strong will survive. Non-food sectors are particularly hard hit as consumers focus on essentials and cut back on big ticket and discretionary spend. Non-food will lose 2.7% points in retail spending.

There is a major change in space as online takes yet more share of spend - particularly in sectors where digital delivery replaces physical product. Though online growth is slowing it will account for nearly 14.0% of all spending by 2015.

Pent up demand and an uplift in the housing market will help home related sectors recover from 2013 onwards, but coming from a much reduced base the recovery will be slow.

Alcoholic Drinks and an Aging Population

The 50+ age group makes up 31% of the world's population and accounts for 30% of global spending on alcoholic drinks (though a lower share of volume). This age group accounts for 40% of wine spending, 37% of spirits spending and 22% of spending on beer, cider and FABs.

The 50+ age group typically accounts for about a half of all consumer spending and many want to live in style with premium products because they believe that have earned it. However, it is estimated that only 10% of marketing is directed at the 50+ age group, such that half of this group believes that businesses have little interest in their needs.

There is an opportunity for no, low, and lower alcohol products, because seniors are the most likely of all age groups to moderate or abstain from drinking. Older consumers are also interested in dietary products (low/no calorie/carb/sugar etc) which currently make up about 2% of new alcoholic drink launches.

Consumers aged 50+ represent an attractive and significant market for alcoholic drinks. It’s now time to start paying more attention to them: they already represent a large section of society – and their numbers are growing; they are affluent, and they enjoy food, drinks, and convivial experiences. This report provides crucial insight and analysis of the aging population and alcohol consumption.

Future Diet Trends and Opportunities

Changes in the global food system and more sedentary lifestyles have combined to create a global obesity crisis. Children around the world are getting fatter younger – a ticking time bomb in terms of poor health and rocketing medical costs.

Certain demographic groups are disproportionately affected by the obesity epidemic. Particular ethnic groups, and those on lower incomes, for example, are more likely to be overweight. Today’s diet options remain ‘one size fits all’, but careful targeting and propositions designed to meet different dieters’ needs represents a key opportunity.

With the launch of digital platforms, diet programs can now offer 24-hour support tools and engage dieters in more appealing and interactive ways. New diet programs have the opportunity to make quick inroads in the market while established brands need to take advantage of these new tools in order to maintain their market position.

Manual Wheelchair Market Shares, Strategies, and Forecasts, Worldwide, 2012 to 2018

As the population ages, people are more frail and need assistance for mobility. Hospital and homecare wheelchair technology is evolving to give people with disabilities more mobility. Mobility depends on a wheelchair that is fit to purpose.
Are people going to move themselves? Are they going to be pushed around? Is the wheelchair used for sports? Many issues impact the choice of a wheelchair, including cost and reimbursement availability.

Markets are poised to create the ability for people to get more exercise and impact the healthcare delivery industry by encouraging mobility of people who were previously bed ridden. Wheelchairs impact care delivery, permitting the patient to control mobility for the rehabilitation efforts. Lightweight wheel chairs give patients the ability to control movement.

Transport wheelchairs are used for moving patients from the bed to another place. Patients and family gain more control over the care delivery with the availability of transport wheelchairs. Care can be delivered in familiar settings.

Invacare is an industry leader in the market for manual wheelchairs, power wheelchairs, and home medical products. The leadership position is bolstered by the ability to offer quality products and an enviable distribution network.

Packaged Food 2012: Is Commodity Price Deflation on the Cards?

After rising strongly from mid-2010 to mid-2011, food input prices have been steadily falling on international commodities markets. Further declines are expected during 2012 for key inputs including corn, wheat and cocoa, as global economic uncertainty persists. In turn, this price deflation should create significant cost saving opportunities all along the packaged food supply chain. This briefing will elucidate those opportunities and clarify differences between developed and developing markets.

Datamonitor forecasts sales for prostate cancer to reach $1.7bn in 2011 in the seven major markets, growing to $4.3bn by 2020, representing a positive 2011-2020 CAGR of 8%. However, Datamonitor’s survey of 124 medical oncologists and urologists suggests that high levels of unmet need remain in preventing the emergence of castration resistance.

Datamonitor estimates that in 2011 the antihormonal class of drugs dominated the prostate cancer market with 63% market share, owing to wide use in both clinically localized and advanced disease. Zytiga is set to become market leader with market share peaking at 18% before patent expiry.

Sales of cytotoxic and immunotherapeutic drugs including Jevtana (cabazitaxel; Sanofi) and Provenge (sipuleucel-T; Dendreon) constituted 30% of market sales across the seven major markets in 2011. This will decrease to 28% over the forecast period owing to Jevtana’s patent expiry and greater use of alternative therapies with lower toxicity.
