Offline Distribution Channel Segment Transforming Industry
The offline distribution also forms a considerable proportion of the bath bomb market, as some conventionalists have a shopaholic tendency to buy the products directly. The absence of delivery downtime makes it easier for the consumer. Some segment examples include in-store promotions, product demonstrations, sampling programs, and point-of-sale displays, among others, which help the industry’s growth. As a result, such a need and demand for bath bombs schematically illustrates that although the circle of buyers has already expanded online, a significant offline presence still exists. These levers come with advantages such as immediate purchase and personal customer attention that physical stores can provide. Regarding the benefits of offline marketing, it is also helpful for raising brand recognition, building trust, and boosting sales of bath bombs. For instance, in April 2023, U.S.-based Hairitage by Mindy McKnight, a pioneer in inclusive haircare, announced its expansion into new categories with the launch of the latest Bath & Body Collection, available exclusively at Walmart. The Bath & Body Collection includes six products in four aromatherapy scent combinations and three new ones. It utilizes a variety of essential oils to provide the ultimate scent & care experience.
Within North America, the U.S. holds a major share of the market. The region’s rapid urbanization, rising investments in the consumer goods industry, the growing consumption of personal care products owing to the rising demand for these products, innovative bath bomb manufacturing, and the presence of several market players are the major factors boosting the market’s growth in the country.
In June 2021, Canada-based Eve & Co Incorporated’s wholly owned subsidiary, Natural MedCo Ltd., shipped its first order of new cannabis-infused bath bombs, “The Optimist CBD Bath Bomb,” to retailers in Newfoundland and Labrador and Saskatchewan.
In January 2021, San Francisco equity partners acquired the natural beauty manufacturing business Smith & Vandiver Corp. California-based Smith & Vandiver Labs specializes in making effervescent products like shower tablets and bath bombs.
