The
Gulf states of Bahrain, Kuwait, Oman, Qatar, Saudi Arabia and the United
Arab Emirates combine to provide one of the world's biggest and fastest
growing markets for the international beauty industry.
This is driven by a young population, high disposable incomes, cosmopolitan influences, modern lifestyles and image conscious attitudes which are all contributing to the market demand for cosmetics, perfumes and beauty products and services.
Added to this is a fast growing trend for the wellbeing experience which
is providing a ready and expanding market for spa, health and fitness products,
equipment and facilities.
