Content of the study:MARKET OVERVIEW
1.1 Presentation and definition of the market
The parapharmacy market includes all sales of care and hygiene products (for adults and babies), but also many types of products that do not require a medical prescription, such as beauty products, diet and nutrition products, sun care products, hair care products, etc.
The parapharmaceutical market has evolved considerably since its emergence in the 1980s and the consumption of parapharmaceutical products has become more democratic by opening up to all distribution methods: pharmacies, specialist retailers, parapharmacies and online sales.

However, the arrival of new entrants and the digital transformation of the sector pose new challenges to the historical players in the market, giving product innovation an increasingly central role in strategies
