information
In 2022, L’Oréal will achieve its fastest growth in 30 years. Sales in the last three months exceeded 10 billion euros (approximately 1.38 trillion yen), and the quarterly performance hit a record high. “All businesses are doing well and we are doing better than before the pandemic,” said CEO Nicolas Hieronymus. “Deploying new sales offices during the pandemic has allowed us to optimize our regional strategy, accelerate growth and improve cost control.” On the other hand, exchange rate fluctuations had a significant impact of more than 7%.
All divisions showed strong growth, with Professional Products up 10.1% year-on-year and L’Oréal Luxury business up 10.2% year-on-year. Sales in the Active Cosmetics segment increased by 21.9% year-on-year, almost doubling compared to 2019. The subdued China market also grew 5.5% year-on-year, but said this was driven by double-digit growth in e-commerce and a strong performance in W11.
