subject: Men's Grooming Products: A Global Analysis-aarkstore Enterprise Market Research Aggregator [print this page] Male-specific body wash, deodorant, hair gel, shaving cream, razors, moisturizer, etc., constitute one of those markets that now outpace the overall beauty/grooming retail markets in many countries of the world, despite economic recession. Valued at $19.7 billion worldwide in 2009, male-specific grooming products will mushroom to $28.0 billion by 2014. And one must not forget that men also use grooming products that are non-male-specific - which raises the total value of male consumption to a colossal $61.3 billion in 2009, with $84.9 billion expected within five years. From either perspective, more is being spent on mens grooming, thanks to the ongoing rise of middle-class sectors; the enhanced connectivity of even the poorest corners of the world, via the Internet; marketers more sophisticated appeals to men; and the universality of prestige and natural food/HBC channels, across hundreds of international borders The potential is staggering - executives who consult this new Report will discover the best way for their companies to tap unmined mens grooming dollars in the United States and Canada, BRIC (Brazil, Russia, India, and China) France, Germany, Italy, Japan, Spain, and other countries and regions.
