Abstract
Overview
Introduction
Verdict Research: We forecast that health & beauty will be the fastest growing retail sector over 2008, but the market will still be difficult with inflationary pressures and demanding consumers. This report analyses the key market issues, growth prospects and major retailers.
Scope
- Comprehensive market coverage - five years' data on health & beauty expenditure broken down into 11 product categories (2003-2008).
- Extensive profiles of 13 of the major health & beauty retailers including analysis of their retail propositions, store portfolios and strategy.
- Key operating statistics for each retailer - market shares, sales, store numbers, operating profit margin, sales per sq ft and space allocation.
- Sales through distribution channels (including specialists, grocers, department stores and mail order) and market shares.
Report Highlights
We forecast that health & beauty will be the fastest growing retail sector over 2008. Despite the external retail environment, we expect growth in the health & beauty market to be higher than 2007, largely due to price inflation, greater uptake of men' s health & beauty products and continued trading up in categories such as skincare.
A set of smaller, yet authoritative retailers with a clear niche focus has developed and they threaten to steal share from larger players. The likes of Space NK and Molton Brown have been expanding their presence, building sizeable operations and threatening more established rivals.
Consumer interest in healthy, natural living is increasingly manifesting itself in the health & beauty market. This is affecting product development and driving growth for niche retailers with a relevant proposition - such as Lush. However, widespread availability makes it challenging for retailers to differentiate on this point alone.
