SHENZHEN, China, July 17, 2023 /PRNewswire/ -- Excitement is ramping up for the 2023 South China Beauty Expo (SCBE), which will be held from July 26 to 28, with the central theme "Consumer Insight, New Technology, Trend & Fashion". Taking place at the Shenzhen Convention and Exhibition Center (Futian District), it will cover 20,000 sqm of exhibition area, gather nearly 700 beauty brand and supply chain enterprise exhibitors, and attract around 15,000 beauty industry attendees.
A new beauty hot spot
The beauty industry is in constant search for new products and brands, new channels, and new consumers, and major beauty brands are now targeting the spending power of China's Greater Bay Area, and more specifically, the growth of "first-store economy" and "cross-border e-commerce" in Shenzhen.
According to the "2022 China Cross Border E-commerce Market Data Report" released by the ECRC (E-Commerce Research Centre), the transaction scale of China's cross-border e-commerce market accounts for about 33% of the total value of China's import and export of goods. This figure is expected to expand to 40%, while the cross-border market size is expected to approach 15 trillion CNY, in 2021-2022.
A new magnet for beauty companies, Shenzhen is at the forefront of the development of cross-border e-commerce in Mainland China. Many beauty brands have taken advantage of this growing channel to work with powerful e-commerce platform sellers, such as Amazon and AliExpress, resulting in new sales opportunities and expansion into international markets, including the United States and Europe.

A new market for beauty

International brands are attracted too by the well-developed beauty supply chain, and import and export traders in the Pearl River Delta. Speedy customs clearance, foreign exchange settlement, tax refund and other links of cross-border e-commerce import and export business have helped expedite the number of start-ups in the area, which quickly spread into the whole country.

New pressures create new trends
The beauty industry's supply chain is under pressure from a number of directions. The dual pressure of product innovation design and environment protection, for example, leads to increasing prices and intensified market competition. At the same time, common demands of upstream and downstream beauty enterprises are for strengthening the competitiveness of packaging materials, and creating differentiated competitive advantages for brands via innovative equipment, technology and materials. Meanwhile, the cosmetics industry's management requirements have become stricter, with new regulations including the electronic registration certificate for cosmetics.
