Research and Markets (http://www.researchandmarkets.com/research/wrxs73/consumer) has announced the addition of the "Consumer Insights: Natural & Organic Personal Care Products In UK (2nd Edition)" report to their offering.
Although the market for natural & organic personal care products has expanded considerably in recent years, little is known is about consumer behaviour. Indeed, there appears to be much confusion about the terms 'natural' and 'organic' in the personal care industry. Consumers are buying these products, but little is known on the reasons why and their triggers. This study gives a detailed account on buyer behaviour, giving insights into consumer attitudes, motives and preferences.
This Consumer Insights report has been produced by undertaking personal interviews with buyers of natural & organic personal care products in the UK. Comparisons are made with the initial study in 2007, enabling changes in consumer behaviour to be monitored. Marketing recommendations are given to brand owners, retailers, as well as new entrants.
The study gives answers to the following questions...
- What are the reasons for consumers to purchase natural & organic personal care products?
- What influence do ecological, health and ethical factors have on consumers?
- What natural & organic personal care products do they actually buy?
