Highlights
We estimate the EU health & beauty market increased by 3.9% in 2007 to
EUR129.9bn. Of the Top Six markets, Spain has been the fastest growing in
recent years, with a buoyant economy driving health & beauty expenditure up by
almost a third between 2002 and 2007.
The EU15 account for 91.5% of the EU' s health & beauty expenditure led by the
large, mature markets of Germany, the UK, France and Italy which each account
for much more than a tenth of EU spend.
Germany has the highest specialist revenues at EUR50.0bn, in line with its
position as the largest health & beauty market. This dominance is driven by
its large and relatively affluent population as well as the extensive store
networks of dominant drugstore retailers Schlecker, dm-drogerie markt,
Rossmann and Müller.
