The Zone ended the year at +6.6% like-for-like and +14.8% based on reported figures.
L’Oréal’s unique brand portfolio and its digital excellence were once again key drivers to outperform throughout the Zone, in all markets and all channels. The Professional Products and Dermatological Beauty Division continued their double-digit growth, leveraging their premium brand portfolio. The Consumer Products Division capitalised on L’Oréal Paris’ notable success in the skincare and haircare categories, and on 3CE Stylenanda growth momentum. L’Oréal Luxe achieved robust growth in a negative market; this remarkable performance was driven by premium skincare, fragrance and the strong acceleration of Yves Saint Laurent across the Zone.
In mainland China, the beauty market was clearly affected by the public health restrictions. In this challenging context, L’Oréal grew appreciably, with a double-digit increase in online sales. Leveraging brand love and operational agility, L’Oréal succeeded in providing consumers with quality premium and innovative products. This remarkable success resulted in strong offline and online market share gains throughout the year, as well as during Double 11, the world’s biggest shopping festival; L’Oréal brands topped the rankings for each beauty category on Tmall, further consolidating the Group’s leadership, notably in luxury, where L’Oréal surpassed 30% of market share in 2022.
L’Oréal recorded double-digit growth in Japan and Korea, where it outperformed the beauty market, which bounced back strongly in 2022.
All L’Oréal sites in the North Asia Zone became “carbon neutral” in 2022.
