Executive summary

Industry maintains solid growth despite economic crisis

Cosmetics and toiletries kept growing in 2008 despite a number of factors threatening the industry. The increase in advertising and new product developments over the review period had a positive impact on the industry. This is the result of the positive actions industry players have taken to stimulate consumption, boosted by good economic conditions in Colombia – a country less affected than other countries by the global economic crisis in 2008. However, there is a general consensus among industry leaders that the years of boom in the industry are over.

Government recognises potential of industry, offers extra support

The Colombian Ministry of Commerce has selected the cosmetics and toiletries industry as one of a group of emerging national industries that has a chance to compete internationally as a cluster, supplying foreign markets with unique products. Additionally, the government has already given the industry benefits, such as duty-free industrial parks or financial support to develop technological innovations. With such government support the cosmetics and toiletries industry is able to develop products of higher quality at lower prices, not only directed to foreign markets, but also to offer to domestic consumers.

Avon emerges as leader in dynamic competitive landscape

The companies leading the cosmetics and toiletries industry in Colombia are a mix of direct sellers and traditional retailers. Unilever Andina Colombia was able to get back to second position after Avon Colombia, which was able to climb to first position in 2008 with strong advertising support, a large number of sales representatives and more affordable prices. Avon was able to surpass Belstar, another direct seller and the former leader, which held third position in 2008 after going through an internal reorganisation process which affected its ability to react to current market trends. Colgate-Palmolive & Cia followed in fourth position in 2008 with a large number of well positioned and popular brands.

Store retailing most important followed by direct selling

Bucking a consistent decline in share for the last five years, grocery retailers increased their overall share of cosmetics and toiletries sales in 2008 due to the growing popularity of 1-stop shopping in Colombia. Toiletries are the main product category to benefit from this trend, as cosmetics still have a more premium position, and as a result are mostly sold through specialists and direct sellers. Toiletries, by contrast, are easily purchased along with other household needs, increasing consumer preference for shopping in supermarkets and hypermarkets. Direct sellers maintain consistent growth, taking share from non-grocery retailers, mainly due to lower prices and greater convenience.

Consumer interest in cosmetics and toiletries remains despite threatening outlook

The boom of the cosmetic and toiletries industry in Colombia is over, and it is expected growth rates will slow over the forecast period. However, growth will continue, as there is a solid consumer base created during the bonanza period. Consumers are very interested in new product developments and now find products at lower prices, making them more accessible and appealing for the bulk of Colombian consumers. The repercussions of the global economic crisis are expected to show over the forecast, although to a minor extent compared with other areas of the economy.
