Maintaining a well-planned ethnic health and beauty care department in retail outlets can result in a strong loyal ethnic customer base as well as increased profits for your stores.

Target Market News, in its annual “The Buying Power of Black America” states that African Americans spent $7.4 Billion on personal care products and services combined in 2009. Packaged Facts predicts that African American will spend an estimated $1.4 Billion on hair care products in 2012.

The majority of these transactions will occur at retail outlets that commit the resources and energy to establish a ‘go-to-market’ plan for the category, procure the products that are in demand by African American customers and make sure that the products are located in a well-organized section in the store.
