The beauty and cosmetics event, Cosmoprof India, organised by BolognaFiere and Informa Markets, will be held 16-17 December 2021 at the Hotel Sahara Star in Mumbai, India. In the wake of the government’s gradual reopening of national borders, it is expected that global buyers, distributors, and research and development managers will now be able to attend the event
Gianpiero Calzolari, president of BolognaFiere, said: “We are monitoring the evolution of Covid-19 in India and the re-opening of the economy, in order to organise an event which will follow all local safety regulations. The exhibition will be the first occasion for brands, buyers, retailers, and wholesalers in the beauty and cosmetics industry to meet again after a long time of travel restrictions and social distancing, and to discover how the domestic industry is reacting to new digital tools, revised distribution channels, and new consumers habits.”
Yogesh Mudras, managing director of Informa Markets in India, added: “While the Covid-19 situation had presented a constantly challenging environment for exhibitions organisers and the beauty and cosmetic industry across the globe, the green offshoots of resurgence and re-start are being optimistically yet cautiously witnessed in India. Scheduling Cosmoprof India at the Hotel Sahara Star in Mumbai in December will allow enough time for normality and confidence to return to the marketplace.”
While the outbreak of Covid-19 and its consequences deeply impacted the nation, the revenue growth in the beauty sector in 2022 is anticipated to increase by over 2.8%.
