PROSPECTS
URBAN MARKETS EXPECTED TO DRIVE GROWTH OF MEN’S

GROOMING IN PAKISTAN
Men’s grooming products in Pakistan are primarily consumed by urban consumers in

the country as unbranded products are still very commonly used by price-sensitive
households in rural towns and villages in Pakistan. Moreover, consumers in rural
areas and smaller towns and cities lack awareness of these products and also do not
find a need to invest in their beauty and personal grooming.
EVOLVING CONSUMER PREFERENCES WILL BOOST SALES OF MEN’S

SKIN AND HAIR CARE BRANDS
The evolving consumer preferences of men in favour of skin and hair care products
has greatly contributed to the growth of men’s grooming in the country. Contrary to
earlier perceptions, males are increasingly becoming concerned about their grooming
needs and are increasingly spending on their beauty and personal products.
MEN’S GROOMING EXPECTED TO REMAIN DOMINATED BY SHAVING

PRODUCTS
While urban markets are expected to lead growth of men’s grooming in the country,
the category is expected to remain dominated by shaving products only. Unlike the
traditional habit of going to the barber, men in Pakistan are increasingly buying
branded shaving products to use at home.
COMPETITIVE LANDSCAPE
GILLETTE CONTINUED TO LEAD MEN’S GROOMING IN 2018
Gillette was off to a challenging start in 2018 wherein macroeconomic factors, such as
the increase in applicable duties and devaluation of local currency, were not
favourable for the import-based trading company. Hence, the higher prices applied in
the latter months of the year to cover macroeconomic hits slightly impacted the rising
sales trend.
FAIR & LOVELY MAX FAIRNESS RETAINED DOMINANCE OF TOILETRIES

IN 2018
Fair & Lovely for men led toiletries in 2018 mainly due to the brand equity of Fair &
Lovely. A well-known brand among women, Fair & Lovely introduced a variant for
men as well to pull in male consumers as well as to invest in their personal grooming.

A corporate acquisition of $1 billion usually suggests a tech start-up making a

new invention in smartphones which is then bought by giants such as Apple or
Google. However, this is not the case with Dollar Shave Club, a simple
business venture that sells men’s razor blades on a subscription plan.
Dollar Shave Club has been bought by Unilever for a whopping $1 billion. The
venture is different from your typical start-up as it hasn’t invented anything
new but instead has used clever marketing skills to convince the world’s
largest consumer product company that it is worth a billion dollars.

The success of Dollar Shave Club is best explained by Ben Thompson
at Stratechery, who points out that Procter and Gamble is the largest producer
of razors with their Gillette brand. Procter and Gamble has maintained its hold
on the market by spending large amounts on research and development and
marketing and distribution with the aim of preventing any other firm from
building a sizable market share.
Michael Dubin, the founder of the Dollar Shave Club, took advantage of the
fact that the basic razor model works just fine and doesn’t need to be invented
every year but rather marketed properly. He used the internet to market his
product and Amazon for its distribution producing cheap razors.

The trick worked as Dollar Shave Club now accounts for a 15 per cent share
for razors in the US.
Dubin also used the rivalry between P&G and Unilever to his advantage.
P&G’s decade long strategy in the market did not allow it to acquire the
company but Unilever was more than happy to do so as it meant the company
could finally make inroads into what had been dominated by its rival firm so
far.
The deal is to be finalised in the third quarter this year, resulting in major
profits for the venture capitalist who invested a relatively small amount of
$150 million.
