Executive summary

Cosmetics and toiletries exceeds expectations

The cosmetics and toiletries industry continued to grow in 2007. People are adopting increasingly Western lifestyles and they have made it a greater priority to groom themselves properly than in the past. Moreover, there is an increasingly large product range to choose from, making this market increasingly competitive and giving consumers an increasingly wide array of products to choose from.

Product specialisation meets greater consumer expectations

The increasing demand for higher product specialisation forced well-established brands to innovate in order to address specific issues. Increased consumer sophistication stems from growing interest in looking good and staying healthy, which is promoted through lifestyle magazines, websites and TV shows. This trend is expected to continue in the years to come as consumers are likely to demand even more from their products.

Multinationals are in control

Although there are several exceptions, multinationals control the cosmetics and toiletries industry. Multinationals have more money to invest in advertising, wider distribution networks and well-established brand names. In order to remain competitive, local producers have therefore had to find niches where multinationals are not present and to develop products for the specific needs of niche consumers. However, there are a few successful local producers that have long-standing reputable brands in the country, including Gerovital from Farmec SA. This brand benefits from strong local brand awareness and is also exported in large quantities.

Direct sales remains the most popular distribution channel

Since 2003 direct sales has been the leading distribution channel. Its strong position is based on accounting for the overwhelming majority of sales across many product areas. Direct sales developed mostly at the expense of small independent food stores and outdoor markets, especially in rural areas, where direct marketing methods better suit consumers who lack product awareness. The product advice given by direct sales representatives is generally trusted, giving this channel a greater influence over potential consumer behaviour and preferences. Two of the leading players that use direct sales exclusively are Avon and Oriflame.

Cosmetics and toiletries is expected to approach maturity

The cosmetics and toiletries industry is expected to continue growing over the forecast period, albeit at a slower rate than was seen over the review period. This slowdown will be the result of the market approaching maturity, as the market has grown substantially over the past several years and it is believed that the industry is approaching its growth ceiling. Over the forecast period it is expected that premium and upper-mass products will become increasingly popular as more people will be willing to pay more for higher quality. Greater interest in appearance and general health among modern consumers will benefit most ranges.
