Earlier Report Observations
The shampoo market in Portugal contracted to $36.6 million in 2019 from $40.9 million the previous year. However, it rebounded strongly from 2020 onward, reaching $47.4 million by 2023.
Growth resumed in 2020 as consumer demand remained stable during the COVID-19 pandemic, with increased interest in multifunctional shampoos addressing hair concerns like dandruff and oiliness. The following year, the launch of new products featuring natural ingredients and vitamin infusions, such as Medimix Total Care, alongside the expansion of online sales channels, further stimulated market expansion.
The upward trend continued into 2023, supported by lasting shifts toward natural, sulfate-free, and vegan formulations, as well as the rising popularity of solid shampoos as an eco-friendly alternative. The market also benefited from the strengthened presence of professional brands like L’Oréal Professionnel and the ongoing dominance of local player Loja do Shampoo in online retail. By 2024, the market stabilized at approximately $47.2 million.
