By Distribution Channel, the Offline segment is projected to dominate the market size in 2024

The offline distribution channel for liquid detergent is dominated by hypermarkets, supermarkets, clubhouse stores, convenience stores, drugstores, and pharmacies. In 2023, this segment accounted for the largest market share due to the vast selection of brands and stock-keeping units (SKUs) offered at competitive prices. Key retailers in this segment include Walmart, Costco Wholesale Corp., The Kroger Co., Carrefour SA, Coles, Target Corp., and Tesco Plc. Consumers are drawn to these outlets due to their convenience, extensive product offerings, and brand variety. Additionally, drugstores and pharmacies hold significant demand for liquid detergents, as consumers perceive these products as reliable and clinically tested. Factors influencing purchases from hypermarkets, supermarkets, and clubhouse stores include ease of access, extensive product offerings, and brand selection.

By Product, Liquid laundry detergent  segment is expected to hold the largest market size for the year 2024

In the realm of laundry care, liquid detergent emerges as a preferred choice for consumers in developed markets, including the US, Canada, and the UK. Unilever PLC, a leading industry player, offers a range of liquid detergent solutions such as Surf Excel Matic and OMO Auto. The shift towards urban lifestyles and heightened awareness of detergent benefits fuel this trend. Moreover, the integration of automatic washing machines into households further bolsters the demand for this versatile and efficient cleaning agent. Liquid detergent, a liquid cleansing agent, distinguishes itself from soap or powder detergent through its ability to emulsify oils and suspend dirt, making it an optimal solution for washing clothes.

North America is forecasted to hold the largest market size by region in 2024

The North American liquid detergent market is projected to experience sustained expansion during the forecast period. This growth can be attributed to the introduction of user-friendly and machine-compatible dishwashing liquid detergents by regional vendors. Moreover, washing machine manufacturers are launching products designed for use with liquid detergents, further fueling market growth. The favorable climatic conditions in North America support the demand for heavy-duty liquid detergents, which have a pH scale of 11 to 12 and are moderately alkaline. The average washing temperature in the region, below 86 degrees Fahrenheit, facilitates the utilization of these heavy-duty detergents, thereby driving their adoption. Additionally, the integration of automatic dishwasher detergent dispensers is another factor contributing to the market's expansion.
