| Abstract: | In 1996 the wet shaving products market was valued at 234 mn pounds, having risen by 81% since 1990. Razors and blades accounted for 74% of market value in 1996, with sales of blades amounting to 154 mn pounds. Sector value as a hole was 76% higher than in 1990. Retail sales of shaving preparations, at 62 mn pounds in 1996 had doubled over the review period. Market value is expected to rise by 31% between 1996 and 2001, taking sales to 307 mn pounds. The shaving preparations sector is expected to continue to outperform the razors and blades sector, although neither sector is likely to see growth levels as high as those recorded in the last five years. |
