PRODUCT LAUNCH:PREMIUM SOAPS – SHOWER GEL:
Soap makers are upping the ante on their premium brands, following a significant jump in demand across urban and rural markets. Premium soaps have been growing at 8-10% vis-a-vis the overall category growth of 5%, while the body wash segment has been growing at 40-50% from a small base, senior industry officials said.
Aspirational purchases by consumers for products like skincare soaps, body washes and other specialised brands have seen companies like
Godrej Consumer Products (GCPL), relaunching their premium skin care brand Evita which was taken out the market earlier. Godrej has earmarked Rs 95 crore in increasing their soap manufacturing capacity.
Even contract makers like VVF have got into manufacturing their own brands in this segment to cash in on the growing demand in the toilet soap category.
