Executive summary

Rising income levels and consumer awareness stimulate growth

In 2006 the cosmetics and toiletries environment in Belarus maintained stable development. Consumers demonstrated increasing interest in higher value products offering a range of more advanced features. This was particularly true in urban areas, underpinned by rising income levels and increased availability. Consumers’ increasing knowledge of the products on offer, and their awareness of the benefits offered by many cosmetics and toiletries, also stimulated growth in 2006.

Product developments and advertising attract consumers

Both foreign and local companies launched new products and established more stable distribution chains in 2006. Newly launched products from foreign manufacturers appeared on Belarusian shelves at the same time as they appeared in the other European countries. Advertising also became increasingly aggressive due to greater investment by local companies. Manufacturers also offered many products in more interesting or higher quality packaging. New, attractively packaged products supported by advertising promoting natural features or a herbal base saw particularly notable performances in 2006.

New niches continue emerging

In 2006 niches of more sophisticated products became more visible. Men’s shampoo and men’s bath and shower products, for example, gained an increasingly significant presence as more products became available. Baby toiletries also saw growth thanks to new launches by a few local players. Electric toothbrushes also became more popular, but remained unaffordable to the majority of consumers, who continued to prefer traditional manual toothbrushes. Here, too, however, rising income levels resulted in increased sales of more advanced products. Increased awareness of personal appearance stimulated sales of men’s grooming products, and parents demonstrated greater interest in baby toiletries.

Direct sales growth

Direct sales remained one of the most dynamic distribution channels for cosmetics and toiletries in Belarus in 2006, surging ahead in many areas of the market. The impressive performance of this channel, particularly Oriflame, was due to the offer of a wide range of mass products in a popular socialising context, which appeals to Belarusian women. This company saw dramatic increases in share as it took advantage of its ability to reach less affluent consumers outside urban areas. These consumers are aware of changing trends and product availability, buy have limited access to bricks and mortar outlets offering modern products.

Local manufacturers’ potential remains high

Local manufacturers’ presence continued to grow in 2006. This was due to the high quality and affordability of their products, which appeals to cost-conscious Belarusian consumers. Consumers in the country increasingly expect a wide selection of high quality products at competitive prices, due to their preference for value for money. Local players are able to offer products at competitive prices as they benefit from low production costs and a longstanding presence in the Belarusian market. As domestic companies develop they represent an increasing challenge of foreign players.

Continued development predicted for forecast period

Over the forecast period the Belarusian cosmetics and toiletries market is expected to see continued growth as consumers’ incomes rise, along with their awareness of the increasingly wide range of benefits offered by modern products. Price competition is also likely as domestic players compete with their multinational opponents by offering a range of higher quality products. As consumers see disposable incomes rise they are likely to become increasingly demanding, seeking out more advanced formulations and products with added value features. However, their inherently price-conscious nature will remain, particularly as the majority of the country’s population is in the low income segment.
