Action retailer private label product expansion

Overview

The Dutch non-food discounter Action utilizes various private label brands to provide low-cost household, electronics, and personal care goods.

Its product range includes cleaning tools under the Spargo brand, paper goods via Pure Soft, and small electronics through Home Essentials. While low-cost electronics often prompt safety concerns, investigations found that Home Essentials products carried the GS safety mark, indicating they met technical and chemical safety standards.

In the baby care sector, the Teddy Care brand offers diapers and wipes. These products are marketed as being made from 100 percent plant-based fibers with no microplastics and feature PEFC-certified sustainable forestry. Action, which was founded in 1993, currently operates approximately 650 stores in Germany and has plans to expand into Croatia and Slovenia by 2026.
