Sales of beauty and personal care rose in current value terms in Belgium in 2024, while volumes stagnated. Following a 2023 in which value sales grew strongly and volumes declined due to inflation, beauty and personal care registered a flatter performance in the final year of the review period. The main reason behind this performance was the stabilisation of prices, which led to a less negative performance in volume sales than in the previous year, but also to lower value growth.
