The deodorant stick has not been available for weeks. The saleswomen told me each time that they had been ordered but not delivered. What's wrong with that? I find it a good deodorant without aluminum salts.

Hello wedge76, we have completely removed the Alvaros deodorant stick from our range. Unfortunately, demand was too low. There are also no remaining stocks available. I'm very sorry that I can't give you better news, but such product range discontinuations are disappointing for us too. We can assure you that Migros is examining these decisions carefully. I hope you find a suitable alternative for you in our range. Kind regards, Heidi
What would be a comparable alternative? My father has needed this deodorant for years and is very disappointed that it is no longer available. The consistency and fragrance were very good.

Hello dear Migros team - I would also like to double up here. Were there any medical problems with the deodorant / with the composition? For us it was the only pleasant and effective deodorant for years. All the other trendy products that promise 24h and 48h protection work much worse. The Alvaros Deo for Men also had a good price/performance ratio and the fragrance is not intrusive and classic. I don't understand at all why you simply remove it from the range or why you don't quickly decide to reintroduce the product given this wave of feedback. Or do you have such reactions with every product that is dropped from the range? I really hope for a comeback!!! Thank you (and please don't refer to the other products, we consumers are responsible ;o) Chris
Hello dear Migros team↵↵I have now read through all the posts here. ↵↵It's a real shame how the very clear customer needs are not being addressed here! ↵↵All requests are congruent, everyone reports the same thing.↵↵The product was so good that I can still remember when I discovered it in Migros as a teenager (after years of searching as a competitive athlete). When I bought it, I was always happy when I spotted it in the rack and I had told my wife over the years that if this product was ever discontinued: 😞↵↵ok, we'll survive. Still, it's a shame.↵↵It also seems to me to have been the wrong product placement strategy. Better margins with the other brand deos.

Hi Kryky, thank you very much for your re-doubling. I'll be careful not to suggest alternatives :-). I understand what you mean! Especially when you've found a product that meets all your personal preferences, you don't want to give it up. You already know the usual answers: we are constantly revising our range to reflect the spirit of the times and current trends. In the course of this process, it is inevitable that certain items have to make way for others. Nevertheless, we have often responded to customer feedback and reintroduced a product. Unfortunately, this is not possible in this case, as the entire Alvaros line is no longer in production. I wish I had more positive news for you... Best regards, Tabea

Hello andela-vidovic, thank you for your inquiry. I am sorry that we have disappointed your father with this decision. Are you already familiar with Tabac Original Deo Stick https://produkte.migros.ch/tabac-original-deo-stick? Could this be an alternative? Kind regards, Tabea
Unbelievable, I have chewed and used this deodorant for over 20 years. Bring it back. The entire Alvaros line is no longer available: I found the shower gel yesterday. I'm also willing to pay twice the price. Just bring the deodorant back. Please!

Hello Skolex Thank you for your contribution. I'm really sorry for your disappointment but the Alvaros line is definitely no longer in production. The shower gel is still in stock until the beginning of 2021 and will no longer be available from then on. I wish you a happy new year. best regards, Angela

Dear Migros I too am very disappointed and indeed heartbroken about the discontinuation of Alvaros deodorant by Migros. As is my 13-year-old daughter(!), who says that this stick is the only one that really works. And that's saying something! For me, this decision is simply incomprehensible. If I could, I would immediately submit a petition for its reintroduction. Question: How can I campaign for the Alvaros deodorant to be reintroduced into the range? I would do almost anything.

Hello Troliver, I'm very sorry, but the line is no longer in production. There's nothing you can do about it. I hope you and your daughter find an alternative that suits you. Best wishes and a happy new year, Sina
Dear Migros, I am unhappy that Alvaro's Deo for Men, another brilliant in-house product, is disappearing. I have used and loved it for many years. I grew up as a Migros child, but I have to say that I have the feeling that Migros has made the wrong decisions in recent years. For me, the pricing in particular is simply no longer in line with the founding father's idea. I expect fair prices in the long term and not permanent "actionism". For example, anyone who buys detergent, toothpaste or diapers at full price must feel very stupid if these products are available at half price again at very regular intervals anyway. Lidl is actually much more in line with Duttweiler's principles today. I actually still like the Migros Group, but I am a little disappointed. Best regards

I also think it's a shame that products that you've been buying for 10 years simply disappear. But tobacco deodorant is definitely an alternative.
