Competitive vendor landscape

The global colostomy bags market is growing steadily, with the competition among vendors being intense. Vendors offer a wide range of colostomy bags and accessories, which leads them to adopt various marketing strategies such as online marketing and development and use of advanced technologies to manufacture innovative products. These strategies help companies reduce the developmental cost of colostomy products and compete with other vendors.

“Developing countries such as Brazil, Mexico, China, India, and Russia present significant opportunities for vendors to expand their businesses and increase their market shares. Coloplast, B. Braun, ConvaTec, and Hollister were the leading vendors in the market in 2015,” says Srinivas Sashidhar, a lead analyst at Technavio for urology devices research.
