Executive summary

New players in a highly competitive market

The Peruvian market is very competitive, characterised by both global and local players. New players are attracted by the good economic results, low market penetration and the high margins the cosmetics and toiletries industry offers. The most powerful local conglomerate, Grupo Romero, through its food and beverage company, Alicorp, actively participates in the cosmetics and toiletries industry in the country.

Smaller sized mass brands are key in the packaging evolution

Given the low disposable income in the country, most Peruvians tend to buy necessities and can’t often afford big ticket items. Cosmetics and toiletries companies are aware of this situation and have strategically introduced smaller sized products. For instance, in shampoo, 70% of total shampoo sales in 2005 were sold in the sachet format. By 2006, this percentage had reduced to 60%. Producers expect this downward trend to continue in the future as purchasing power – particularly among the lower-middle and middle classes – will increase.

Drugstores and door-to-door gain ground on traditional channels

Although modern distribution channels, such as supermarkets and department stores, are increasing at high rates throughout the country, traditional stores are still the most important in terms of value sales. Nevertheless, traditional channels tend to have high distribution costs due to the many non-organised (approximately 150,000) outlets. Around 85% of mass consumption business is channelled through this extensive network. Currently, it is estimated that 15% of the sale price is due to logistical costs because of this inefficient distribution channel. In this context, drugstore chains, a format which is better able to reach emerging population groups, is gaining ground on outdoor markets. It serves the same consumers but can offer lower logistical costs due to their centralised distribution systems. On the other hand, direct sales also appear as a route to reduce distribution costs. Peruvian women tend to have a conservative lifestyle. They do not go out much and mainly work at home. This, combined with the poor distribution systems in the country, provide a perfect scenario to reinforce this alternative channel. This has reached a point that a direct sale is the most important channel for colour cosmetics.

Lima remains an important commercial centre but provinces are on the rise

There is a new dynamism emerging in the provinces in Peru due to important export-orientated agribusiness as well as mineral activities, accompanied by a rise in the access to consumption credit. The demand for cosmetics products is rising at rates of 12% per year in the provinces, which is similar to Lima. New distribution channels have started to appear in shopping centres in major cities. Most of these new shopping centres have well positioned regional stores such as Saga Falabella, Ripley, CinePlanet, Topy Top and Gold’s Gym. However, the capital Lima is still the most attractive retailing centre accounting for 60% of the country’s cosmetics and toiletries value sales. Parque Arauco, the most important Chilean mall operator, announced, in a joint venture with the local Grupo Wiese, a US$100 million investment in 2007 for new shopping centres around the capital, Lima. Parque Arauco acquired 45% shares of the Mega Plaza Shopping centre, a project headed by its local partner, Grupo Wiese, in 2003.
