Competitive Landscape

Johnson & Johnson Pacific (NZ) Ltd led the category with a current value share of 28% in 2013, unchanged from its value share in 2012. Johnson’s Baby continued to lead the category as a trusted brand and enjoys strong supermarket exposure. Johnson’s Baby was ranked the number one brand overall in baby and child-specific products, with a brand share of 25% in 2013. Other brands within the company’s range are Johnson’s Kids, appealing to the slightly older child, and the natural brand of Aveeno. Having pulled Johnson’s Soothing Naturals out of the market, the company replaced this range with the Aveeno Baby brand. The Aveeno brand for adults is promoted as a more natural brand, and therefore it made sense for the company to replace Johnson’s Soothing Naturals with Aveeno within the baby and child-specific products category. Launched in 2010, the Aveeno Baby brand still remained small and niche with a value share of under 1% in 2013.

Industry Prospects

During 2013 birth rates saw yet another decline. According to Statistics New Zealand, at the end of 2013, live births were down 4%, resulting in significantly fewer births since 2005. In addition, the trend towards older mothers giving birth continued, with an expectation that the trend towards fewer births within family households is likely to continue due to ageing mothers. Therefore, birth rates are forecast to be below 13 births per 1,000 people by 2018.
