Executive summary

Mature cosmetics and toiletries maintains growth

Cosmetics and toiletries is largely mature in Denmark, with wide household penetration for most products. However, a number of factors enabled continued sales growth in 2006. Firstly, there was a growing focus on value-added products among both players and consumers, which aided value growth. Consumers responded enthusiastically to cosmetics and toiletries with additional anti-ageing, skin care or sun protection benefits. There was also growing interest in products with a natural or organic positioning and cosmetics and toiletries for sensitive skin. In addition, the male consumer base expanded, with younger men increasingly interested in grooming.

Sun care most dynamic as consumer awareness grows

Sun care saw the most dynamic growth within cosmetics and toiletries in 2006. Growth was assisted by strong public education campaigns, with more consumers thus using sun protection when exposed to the sun. In addition, growth was driven by an unusually long and hot summer and by players driving volume growth through price promotions. An increasing range of private label sun care also attracted consumers’ attention.

Multinationals lead but face growing competition from private label

Multinationals lead Danish cosmetics and toiletries, with the top three players being L'Oréal, Lever Fabergé and Beiersdorf. These players have wide ranges and well-trusted brands with a long presence in Denmark. They also benefit from wide distribution, strong marketing support and frequent new product development. However, many of the leading multinationals lost share to private label in 2006. Pharmacies/drugstores retailer Matas was particularly active in expanding its range of good quality private label cosmetics and toiletries, with a growing focus on value-added products.

Supermarkets/hypermarkets struggles to maintain share

Supermarkets/hypermarkets is the leading retailer in cosmetics and toiletries. Many Danish consumers have a highly pragmatic attitude to cosmetics and toiletries, preferring basic products and picking these up along with their weekly shop. However, the growing focus on value-added products saw the share of supermarkets/hypermarkets slip in 2006. Meanwhile, specialists gained share, as did pharmacies/drugstores, with this channel largely benefiting from the growth of leading retailer Matas.

Steady growth in forecast period

Cosmetics and toiletries is expected to see continued constant value growth during the forecast period, albeit at a slightly lower rate than seen during the review period. Growth will continue to be underpinned by the introduction and growing appeal of value-added products. However, strong price competition and the continuing expansion of private label is expected to constrain constant value unit price growth and thus to hinder overall value sales growth.
