Boozt.com launches beauty and cosmetics category

Report this content

After lengthy preparations, Boozt AB (publ) (“Boozt” or the “Company”) adds a new beauty and cosmetics category “Beauty by Boozt” on Boozt.com headed by strong international brands, such as Estée Lauder, Clarins, Lancôme, Biotherm, Nuxe and YSL.

According to PostNord (source: E-commerce in the Nordics, PostNord 2017), beauty & cosmetics is the fourth biggest on-line category in the Nordics, with 19% of all transactions in the Nordics and 25% in Sweden. However, per Euromonitor, the on-line share of the total beauty and personal care market in the Nordics was only 11% out of a SEK 56 billion total market. 

It is a market in the Nordics that has been somewhat underserved on-line and therefore, it is with great pleasure that Boozt.com launches beauty and cosmetics. This is a new category on the site and features a selection of more than 70 international and Scandinavian brands and over 3,000 products.

“Many of our customers have been asking when we would be ready to sell cosmetics on-line as it is a natural fit in the ‘on-line-department-store-experience’”, says Hermann Haraldsson, CEO of Boozt. “They have been waiting for us to launch so we are happy to finally be able to launch this new important category. Cosmetics is a good fit for us and we hope our customers will add cosmetics items to their basket and thus, increase their basket size. It will also give us a good opportunity to be in a more frequent dialogue with our customers due to the re-purchase pattern in beauty and cosmetics. We launched our physical Beauty by Boozt store in Roskilde, Denmark, earlier this year and we are enthusiastic to launch the beauty concept on-line,” finishes Hermann Haraldsson.
