Our ambition:
To be the leading solution provider in the global personal care industry
As an industry belonging to the fast-moving consumer goods (FMCG) category, personal care is shaped by major trends in society. The market is highly fragmented and competitive, with no single brand owning a market share of more than 10%. The end consumers it serves are well informed have limited brand loyalty. Our entire strategy is dedicated to partnering with personal care manufacturers in mastering this complex and challenging environment.
A central element of our strategy is to work with our customers to leverage the massive potential of global megatrends, with a special focus on three:
- the expanding demand for consumer products as affluence grows in emerging economies,
- the increasing demand for responsibly sourced and manufactured products as awareness of health and sustainability rises and
- the growing demand for individualized products in digitally interconnected societies.
