In 2024, beauty and personal care in Greece recorded positive value growth, albeit at a slower pace than in 2023. This moderation was largely due to a decline in inflationary pressure, which was still significant, though lessened, in 2024. In addition, certain categories were impacted by government regulations. In early 2024, authorities introduced a measure requiring suppliers of specific product categories to reduce their commercial offers to retailers by 30%.
