A young and growing
population, the constant improvement of living conditions, and the development
of the manufacturing and digital sectors have given a boost to the Indian
economy in recent years. The pandemic and its aftermath have had a profound
impact on the nation. Nonetheless, the beauty sector is expected to grow by +
2.8% in 2022. During and as an aftermath of the pandemic, there has been a
paradigm shift with brands adapting to e-commerce more than ever before.
There
have been new ways brands communicate with their consumers as there has been a
shift in habits and consumption. Besides, factors like the trend of augmented
reality, customised digitized consultation, equitable demand across metro
cities and Tier I, II and III towns, influencer marketing and the push for an
entire gamut of products including home-grown and self-applicatory ones have
played their part in providing resilience to the Indian beauty & personal
care industry that is expected to grow to Rs. 111,000 crores (US$ 15.17
billion) by 2024 in spite of turbulence in the market.
"For the first time after
the pandemic, Cosmoprof India brings together brands, buyers, retailers and
wholesalers, to guide them to discover how the domestic industry is reacting to
the most innovative digital tools, current distribution channels and new
consumers habits”, said
Gianpiero Calzolari, President of BolognaFiere, adding, "We are ready to recover normal commercial
relations and relaunch the sector, respecting safety regulations."
Speaking at the inauguration of the
Cosmoprof India show, Yogesh Mudras, Managing Director, Informa Markets in
India, said, “Amidst an
extremely receptive industry response, we are happy to organise Cosmoprof
India with its pulse on every trend and our comprehensive showcase of finished
products, packaging, supply chain & ingredients. We know that professionals
