difficult for them to go about their daily business. In response, local players such as Lixco
Detergent JSC and Netco have prioritised online marketing channels, with opening an official
online store on e-commerce platforms such as Lazada, Shopee and Tiki increasingly seen as
essential for success in the category.
The leading global brands in laundry care meanwhile have also invested substantial
resources in developing and maintaining a strong online presence, with constant promotional
discounts on offer to attract the attention of consumers. These have included bundling laundry
care items with products from other home care categories, in addition to deep price discounts.
Among the most notable of such activity during 2021 was the efforts of Unilever to support its
Omo brand via various mini games on Facebook and a campaign that encouraged consumers
to share images of their laundry moments at home to win e-vouchers and free products.
In terms of store-based retailing meanwhile, the expansion of convenience stores in both
urban and rural areas of the country has boosted the presence of the leading laundry care
brands. In the past, local brands mainly targeted traditional grocery stores and wet markets,
whereas now it has become much more common for them to be displayed on the shelves of
modern grocery retailers outlets. In particular, Lixco recently confirmed that the brand had been
working with Bach Hoa Xanh to obtain priority shelf positioning for all of its products across the
retailer’s entire chain of supermarkets.
