• Increasing Awareness of Foot Care

Growing awareness of foot health and hygiene propels the demand for foot creams and lotions. With consumers understanding the importance of foot care for overall well-being, sales of foot care products are on the rise.

Restraints/Challenges

• High Prices of Premium Products

The rising popularity of premium foot care products faces obstacles due to their steep prices, restricting mass-market acceptance. For instance, anti-aging foot care items are priced at a premium, reducing affordability for average consumers and constraining market size. To address this challenge, companies must innovate with cost-effective product line extensions to attract budget-conscious buyers while managing the impact of expensive ingredients and technologies on pricing.
