The Brazilian personal care industry showed
an average growth of 13.5% over the last ten years,
increasing from a net sales of R$ 8.3 billion (US$ 3.5
billion) in 2001 to R$ 29.4 billion (US$ 17.6 billion)
in 2011 (ABHIPEC, 2011b). Among the factors driving
this growth, are the use of high technology by the
sector, constant releases of new products, increase of
life expectancy, which brings the need to maintain a
youthful image, a greater consumption of products by
men, among others that are considered in chapter 2 of
this publication.
According to data from the Brazilian Association
of Personal Care, Perfumes and Cosmetics (ABHIPEC,
2011b), there are 1,659 companies in Brazil operating
in the market for personal care products, with 20
large companies with net sales over R$ 100 million,
representing 73% of total sales. Table 1.55 shows the
regional distribution of these companies.
