The UK health & beauty market has so far proven to be one of the most resilient retail sectors during the recession. The £16.3bn market is set to grow by 2.7% in 2009, compared with a total retail decline of 0.6% making it the second best performing category overall. Nevertheless, the market is still challenging with grocers continuing to build their leading share as they widen their ranges, increase space and add more pharmacies. UK Health & Beauty Retailers 2009 is a new report published by Verdict Research that examines UK health & beauty expenditure trends, the performance of the market leaders as well as a selection of smaller, influential specialists and highlights the opportunities in the sector, as well as the threats. Along with comprehensive analysis, it includes an extensive range of data and key operating statistics that will enhance and inform retailer and supplier strategy.
