Across nine euro markets, median toothpaste prices range from €3.11 to €8.92 per 100ml. In Slovenia alone, the shelf runs from €0.65 to €14.78 per 100ml.

Why?
Brand stratification
Toothpaste is a low-differentiation product with strong brand stratification across basic, clinical, and premium tiers.
Clinical positioning
Claims such as “repair and protect” support higher prices even when the product category stays the same.
Formats and marketing
Novel formats and marketing raise shelf prices far more than geography does across euro markets.
