Key Market Trends

Growing Demand For Perfumes in The Region

The perfume industry in the region is driven by increasingly westernized young consumer base in urban centers along with spurring multi-channel strategies, digitalization and the need to offer products above and beyond the basics, tapping into new areas such as experience and personalization. Brazil is the largest market for fragrances in Latin America by a wide margin, although the country itself is a tale of two halves. Consumers in the northeast of the country are heavy users of fragrances, whilst interest wanes further south. Another driver is the growing feminine fragrances strengthened by the new launches.

Brazil Holds a Prominent Market Share

In Brazil, with the growing acceptance of frozen and processed food, the flavor manufacturers have many opportunities to extend their brands and strengthen connections with Brazilian consumers. In 2018, the food processing industry in Brazil witnessed a growth of 2%, compared to the previous year, driven by the gradual recovery from the most severe economic crisis. To incentivize innovation, the Brazilian government reduced import duties. Among the sectors that benefited from this measure, 11.85% of the equipment imported was for the beverage industry and 4.47% was for the food industry. This factor had a direct positive impact on the food flavor manufacturers worldwide. Brazil is also a major market for fragrances from the beauty and personal care industry, owing to the growing importance of personal growth among the population and social living standards.
