PESTEL Analysis of DeodorantsAspects Impact
Political Controversial advertisements of deodorants regularly subjected to criticism by politicians.
Economic Poor economy leads to unemployment which further leads to fall in consumption of deodorants. Because the core driver for using deodorant as part of a routine is getting ready for work. Unemployment removes this.
Social With change in Lifestyle and increase in personal disposable income, people tend to focus more on hygiene and therefore increase deodorant consumption.
Technological The R&D costs are not very high. This provides for easy entry of new players in the deodorant market.
Environmental Deodorants contain Aluminium which can lead to Cancer and Alzheimer’s disease. Also, Showering washes our deodorants and antiperspirants down the drain, introducing known or suspected toxins into our nation’s waterways.
Legal ‘Axe deodorant Court Case’ – Axe was taken to court by a consumer because he was “unable to attract even a single girl “.
