A digital event presented and coordinated by the FFCE China team, and hosted by Sophie Wieviorka , economist at Crédit Agricole, and Maria Galan , CEO of Open2Beauty.

In this context rich in economic and sectoral challenges, the speakers offered a precise insight into the changes in the Chinese market and their implications for French companies in the sector.

China is currently experiencing a more challenging economic phase, but it remains a key market for the cosmetics industry. France maintains its position as the leading supplier and benefits from a consistently strong demand for beauty products.
The country has now entered a "New Era", where cosmetics is recognized as a strategic industry , fully integrated into national priorities.

This transformation is based on a rise in R&D , biotechnology and artificial intelligence , which are reshaping the entire value chain.

In this context, French brands must strengthen their differentiation , their scientific evidence and their regulatory robustness to continue to perform in a market that has become more selective and demanding.
