The South Korea beauty fridges market has generated revenue of USD 198 million in the current year and is poised to achieve a CAGR of more than 5% for the forecast period.
Key Highlights
- The beauty industry in South Korea has experienced rapid growth in the past few years due to growing disposable income levels in emerging economies and increasing demand for convenience products. Storing products in a beauty fridge helps these products maintain their chemical structure and integrity for a longer period of time, helping minimize separation and scent changes. This is especially important for natural products with active ingredients such as Vitamin C.
- During the initial stage of COVID-19, due to supply chain disruptions, the markets experienced losses due to stoppage in manufacturing and distribution services. Later, due to work-from-home culture, the demand for cooling systems rose. Post-COVID, the market is experiencing gradual growth according to seasonal demand fluctuations.
- Beauty fridges are becoming an increasing trend in the beauty industry because they provide a convenient option for storing products in a controlled environment. Usually, when people purchase items from certain beauty retailers, they will receive the products in a plastic package, which exposes them to bacteria. On the other hand, Beauty fridges keep all the products at a temperature that does not allow bacteria to increase and keep all beauty products fresh. The development of different skincare facial and hair treatments is driving the demand for beauty fridges.
