Did you know:

• Cosmetics stores have the highest market share in the Czech Republic. This is also the most consolidated market: the top 3 players are responsible for an over 37% market share.
• At the other end of the scale is Bulgaria, with cosmetics stores generating 28% of the market and the top 3 chains accounting for a 19% market share. This illustrates the difference between the most and the least developed cosmetics markets in the region.
• Large international players, dm and Rossmann in particular, dominate all the markets. Only in the Czech Republic and Slovakia, are there single domestic players among the top 3 rankings.
• Among the non-economic factors, sales of cosmetics should be driven by the expansion of cosmetics chains, the growing popularity of online sales, new product launches, an ageing society that requires more advanced products, and growing demand for natural cosmetics.
• In general, the most common private label products in the health and beauty category are cosmetic tissues, cotton pads, cotton sticks, toilet paper, soap, bath foams, bath sponges as well as baby care products, baby wipes, and nappies.

Extract from this report:

• Due to the deterioration of economic conditions, 2013 was a weaker year for cosmetics sales in Central Europe compared to 2012. According to our forecasts, the overall cosmetics market grew by 1.6% (in local currencies), while its value reached €8.8bn.
• In 2014 the growth rate should increase to 2.8%, while in the following years the market is predicted to develop at a pace of 4-5%.
