Paper & Tissue Products
The paper and tissue aisle: toilet tissue, kitchen towel, facial tissue, napkins and wet wipes. Vietnam has the mills; this aisle is open and being loaded, and the desk sources against a written specification rather than from stock.
What this aisle covers
Five shelves, and they are the same buyer as the home care aisle next door: a distributor filling a supermarket takes tissue on the same order as detergent. Toilet tissue and kitchen towel are sold on ply, sheet count and roll weight rather than on brand, which makes the specification the whole conversation. Facial tissue, napkins and wet wipes complete the aisle, and wet wipes are the one line with a shelf life to plan for.

Open, and honest about it
Nothing is loaded on these shelves yet, and the page says so rather than pretending otherwise. That is an absence of supply and not of demand: none of the three Vietnamese consolidators measured in our customs analysis has exported tissue, while the mills are here and the volumes are large. Write to the desk with the ply, the sheet count, the roll weight and the destination, and it will come back with what can be built against them.
