Thailand Cosmetic Market: Beyond Regulatory – A Practical Guide to Sell Cosmetics in Thailand

Thailand is traditionally one of the main cosmetic markets in Asia, and its growth is estimated by 5.5% per annum until 2025. The faster-growing product segments are skincare (42%), hair products (15%), soaps and hygiene (14%), oral and dental care (12%), and makeup (12%).

Direct to Consumer channel is booming with double-digit percentages, and the trend is expected to continue due to the convenience of direct-to-consumer delivery, that in Thailand is extremely efficient and well-organized.

Beyond all the forecast, this scenario opens a great opportunity for foreign manufacturers, that can access the consumer market bypassing the traditional distributorship and getting a higher margin by using the innovative License-holding system.
