Earlier Report Observations
The shampoo market in Latvia expanded to $6.0 million in 2019 but contracted by 8% to $5.5 million in 2020, a decline driven by the COVID-19 pandemic which disrupted consumer behavior and limited new market entry. During these initial years, the market structure was highly concentrated, dominated by a few major players.
Market value increased to $6.4 million in 2021 and surged by 18% to $7.6 million in 2022. This growth was propelled by the entry of new retail chains such as LIDL and SPAR, which heightened competition and broadened consumer access. Concurrently, inflation shifted demand toward more affordable shampoo options, contributing to the overall market expansion.
Following the 2022 peak, the market value adjusted downward to $7.1 million in 2023 and further to $6.6 million in 2024.
