Private label could be the solution to adress a tight-budget target

April 14th

 

An alternative in inflation times

 

Recent inflationary pressures prompt global beauty consumers to seek cost-effective alternatives. Private label products meet demands for quality and affordability.


Resilient during economic downturns, private label’s popularity grows amid current cost-of-living challenges. Expanding beyond traditional domains, it registers significant growth in personal care and penetrates beauty-centric categories. In hair care, private label outpaces competitors with double-digit growth


Price hikes by established brands drive consumers towards private label offerings. Retailers launch budget-friendly alternatives, fueling a growing "dupe" culture, particularly among younger generations. 

 

How to capitalize on the trend


Looking ahead, private label's appeal to premium beauty and personal care consumers is expected to endure amidst ongoing economic uncertainty. Retailers can capitalize on this trend by emphasizing premium attributes while maintaining pricing flexibility.
