COMPETITIVE LANDSCAPE
The household products market will be analyzed taking manufacturers of household products as players.
The key buyers will be taken as retailers, and chemical companies as the key suppliers.
The Indian household products market is fairly fragmented with the top three players accounting for
43.8% of the total market value.
The Indian household products market has the presence of leading players like Unilever, Nirma and
Procter & Gamble. Independent retailers are dominant in the market, and the smaller ones in particular
may not exert very strong buyer power. The fact that manufacturers of household products are able to
source some of their raw materials from only a relatively small number of suppliers boosts supplier power.
The existence of strong brands and the scale economies associated with the high-volume production
facilities prevent the threat of new entrants from becoming a significant factor. High exit barriers and fixed
costs tend to increase rivalry between manufacturers. In general, the intensity of competition in the global
household products market is assessed as moderate.
In the Indian household products market, the main distribution channels of the household products are
independent retailers with the distribution share of about 86% of the market value. Thus, the size of the
average buyer is significant, which enhances their negotiating position and therefore increases buyer
power. Household products are usually differentiated (in terms of color, brand, strengths, fragrance, etc.)
but their overall function is fairly standardized. Such lack of distinction of products increases buyer power.
A form of backward integration within the market is possible with buyers developing their own brands of
private-label household products. Switching costs for buyers are not particularly high, although retailers
are generally required to stock products of many different manufacturers to provide for customers' varied
preferences, which may diminish buyer power. Overall, buyer power is moderate in the Indian household
products market.
Inputs to the household products market include a wide range of specialized chemicals and also
packaging materials. Major chemical manufacturers serve to increase overall supplier power as they may
have the ability to negotiate favorable deals with manufacturers. Supplier power is also increased by the
fact that chemical manufacturers supply to a number of industries, which reduces their reliance on
revenues from the household products market. However, a number of household products manufacturers
have exhibited backward integration by producing raw materials required in the production of household
products. Some companies may be restricted to certain product formulas and this makes them reliant on
suppliers that can provide specific inputs that may be difficult to substitute. This tends to increase supplier
power even more. Overall supplier power in this market is assessed as moderate.
The household products market is difficult to enter on a small scale as the manufacturers of most
household products utilize inherently large-scale processes that require significant capital input to set up.
Also, producers need to distribute their products widely, which generally involves channels such as
supermarkets. These retail chains may have considerable buyer power, which reduces the prices that
manufacturers of household products can obtain. Such a factor may discourage smaller potential new

entrants, because in order to maintain profitability in the face of such buyer power, scale economies are
important. In addition to the aforementioned entry barriers, the cost of advertising, which is crucial for
success in this market, should also be considered as a deterrent for new entrants. Overall the likelihood
of new entrants is moderate.
The main threat of substitutes in the household products market is posed by homemade alternatives.
End-users may prefer these on the grounds of price, or because they can control what ingredients are
used in their preparation. However, any substitutes for household products need to be prepared, which is
a relatively time-consuming process requiring specific knowledge, and may not provide the desired
results, reducing the threat of household products substitutes. Furthermore, as the manufacturers are
now aware of the increasing demand for environmentally friendly and allergy free alternatives, they are
incorporating these qualities into their products, which, combined with their greater convenience, reduces
the threat of substitutes. Overall, the threat of substitutes in this market is moderate.
In the household products market, competitors are usually large, well-known, geographically-diversified
companies that operate in a number of other business areas such as personal care or pharmaceuticals,
which weakens rivalry between market players. These consumer products are generally mass-market
items, implying high fixed costs for large-scale production facilities, and investment in research and
development. Exit costs may also be high, for example, quite specialized fixed assets may need to be
disposed of. High fixed- and exit costs increase rivalry within the market. Moreover, players are fairly
similar to one another and offer fundamentally similar products, which intensify rivalry even further.
However, some household products manufacturers have developed strong brands, allowing them to
differentiate their products to some extent. Overall, rivalry in this market is moderate.
