Cosmetics and Household Goods very popular in European Direct Selling
In 2011, France and Germany generated the highest revenue in European direct selling, while Russia employed the highest number of staff in this sector. Cosmetics, personal care products and household goods were the most popular products categories in Europe. In Great Britain, especially "person-to-person" selling was widespread and in France, the number of people employed in direct selling increased. In Spain, only 15 Euro were spent on average in this segment, compared to 120 Euro in Japan and 70 Euro in the USA. Especially successful companies were Vorwerk in Italy and Yves Rocher in Switzerland. In Germany, direct selling revenue decreased slightly from 2010 to 2011, however, still reaching more than 2.5 billion Euro. Forecasts for 2012 predicted that in Poland especially companies selling mass products such as cosmetics and fashion would be successful. In 2011, Russian direct selling revenue increased by a one-digit percentage figure compared to the previous year and in Ukraine direct selling revenue grew steadily too. An upward trend can also be observed in the Baltic States. In 2011, the top product categories in Norway - as well as in Turkey - were cosmetics and skin care products.
