The Beauty Cluster, together with Nueva Investigación, carries out the annual Cosmetics, Perfumery and Personal Care Industry Barometer. Until Friday 10th, Beauty Cluster member companies can answer this ten-minute survey, which serves as a tool to find out from industry professionals about the state of the sector.
The barometer offers a snapshot of our industry in terms of areas such as its activity, growth in sales or employees, areas of investment, exports, trends, consumption forecasts, etc. The results are analysed on an aggregated basis, by an independent entity (Nueva Investigación) and only aggregated data will be provided. All responses are subject to the confidentiality of these studies.
The study, which is held annually, includes companies that operate at different stages of the value chain: own brand products, third-party manufacturing, business services and/or consultancy, packaging, ingredients, active ingredients and/or essences, devices, equipment, accessories, distribution, online sales and/or retail. This year the results of the seventh edition will be published and the results will be published exclusively in Next in Beauty.
The barometer contains data that serve to measure the well-being of workers, training and skills that stand out within the industry, the turnover of the companies that participate, the number of employees, as well as data that show us the image and situation of the Spanish cosmetics sector abroad, offering information on exports and imports.
This survey also provides information on the industry's main concerns and challenges and how they develop throughout the year. In the last barometer, the most shared concern in the more than 140 responses was the price increase and the supply crisis.
