FKCCI Highlights Opportunities for Korean Beauty Companies at COSMOBEAUTY SEOUL 2026
On May 28, the FKCCI participated in COSMOBEAUTY SEOUL 2026, one of Asia’s leading beauty industry exhibitions, through a conference session entitled “French Market: A Gateway to Europe.”
During the seminar, Sonia Chaieb Kim, CEO of the FKCCI, provided an overview of the French cosmetics market, highlighting its position as one of the world's leading beauty hubs. She noted that the French beauty industry generates approximately €71 billion in turnover and continues to grow every year, illustrating the market's dynamism and attractiveness for international brands.
The session also emphasized France’s role as a strategic gateway to the wider European market. As Sonia Chaieb Kim explained, successfully entering the French market often serves as a strong foundation for broader European expansion: “Once you have done it for France, you can go everywhere in Europe.”
Participants gained insights into consumer expectations, clean beauty and sustainability trends, distribution channels, and partnership opportunities, offering valuable guidance for Korean beauty companies seeking to develop their presence in Europe.
The conference attracted beauty industry professionals, manufacturers, exporters, and business representatives eager to explore new growth opportunities in the French and European beauty sectors.
