About Savon Kado
Kado is one of the three household soap brands SCS runs in parallel, alongside Étoile and Tropick, each sold in several formats. Running more than one name from the same soap plant lets the company hold several price points and several shelf positions in the same Cameroonian market shop without diluting its flagship, which is the same structure it uses on the oil side with Star Oil and Macoo. The company lists Kado among the soaps it sells directly through its own online boutique.
