Strong product with high intrinsic value
• Typical point of sales include large format
retailers, convenience stores, salons and spas
and online retailers
• Suppliers of natural and organic shaving
products limited to a small number of niche
players
• Market currently in growth phase with product
adoption limited to environmentally conscious
consumers
• Substitutes take the form of synthetic based
products and are widely available
• Threat of new entrants and larger players is
extremely likely due to product profitability
Industry Analysis
• Unique product type with limited availability
• High intrinsic value and can therefore charge a
price premium
• Ability to be sold through all channels and to all
types of consumers
• Not possible to reverse engineer and integrate
effectively with prior existing products
Product Analysis

niche product
given the
intrinsic
characteristics

share and build
brand loyalty

health and
environmentally
conscious
consumers
