Executive summary

Cosmetics and toiletries continue to perform positively

Value sales of cosmetics and toiletries saw positive growth in 2008. The reason for this dynamic performance was the economic recovery in the country, following a modest economic performance in 2007 as GDP posted growth of more than 6%, up from the 3% registered in 2007. This positive economic environment led to improving disposable income as unemployment rates dropped to less than 10%, and also contributed to an increasing propensity to spend among consumers who demonstrated a greater interest in grooming themselves. Consumer interest was also aroused by the expanding range of products launched by manufacturers.

New product launches a major boost for cosmetics and toiletries

Major companies operating in cosmetics and toiletries are gradually increasing their spending on research and development in order to satisfy more sophisticated consumer demands. New product launches and greater demand for modern products such as shower gel, conditioners, men’s grooming products and skin care also helped to strengthen sales. This is why manufacturers are seeking ways to expand their product portfolio, by introducing novelty ingredients as well as developing value added formulations. Multinational giants remain the pioneers in terms of the number of new product launches, while domestic companies are lagging behind. The most interesting domestic development is the use of local argan oil ingredient in skin, sun and hair care products.

A competitive market dominated by multinationals

The cosmetics and toiletries market in Morocco is becoming more competitive and highly fragmented due to the presence of various local and multinational brands, and many direct selling players. The recent free-trade agreements signed by Morocco with many Arab, EU and Asian countries led to a rapid flow of cheap imported products. However multinational players such as Union pour la Fabrication le Commerce et l’Industrie (L’Oréal), Beiersdorf Maroc SA, Unilever and Palmolive still maintain their lead. This is due largely to their domination of key product types such as colour cosmetics, hair care and skin care, benefiting from their brand reputation supported by constant investment in new product developments and marketing activities. Local players continue to lose shares due to their limited budgets, which curtails their ability to emulate international brands.

Perfumeries dominate distribution

Distribution of cosmetic and toiletries in Morocco is dominated by perfumeries, which held a 37% value share in 2008. Perfumeries’ lead has also been consolidated by the entry of major beauty specialist chains such as Marionnaud, Sephora and Nocibe. Other existing chains, such as Yves Rocher, Style de Parfum and Beauty Success, also expanded their presence in Morocco by opening several outlets across the country. These modern perfumeries attract a large number of consumers thanks to their wide display of brands in all price segments, allowing them to target various consumer groups. Moreover, these modern outlets offer their customers new facilities not allowed in traditional retail outlets, such as open shelves and testers, as well as in-store assistance.

Cosmetic and toiletries expected to see positive growth in future

Cosmetic and toiletries sales are expected to see a steady growth in coming years due to improving disposable income, growing interest in personal appearance among consumers, along with constant innovation and new product launches. Colour cosmetics, fragrances and skin care – the main categories in the cosmetics and toiletries market – are expected to see more product developments, with the launch of value-added products to boost performance, as they are reaching maturity. The fast-emerging product types such as men’s grooming and sun care will also thrive due to greater interest in appearance and general health among young consumers.
