International private equity firm is conducting a search within US territory for a retail chain selling perfume (as well as makeup and beauty products, if included) in order to acquire a majority share of the capital and generate synergies with other companies operating in this sector already held by the firm. Priority will be given to opportunities for production under the chain's own brand and additional channels of online distribution.

Chinese importer/distributor operating mainly in makeup and skincare products through its own network of 650 points of sale throughout the country seeks a commercial partnership opportunity, with the subsequent possibility of participating in the partner’s share capital, with a French manufacturer, ideally one with its own brand, specialized in ingestible beauty and skincare products for men and women the sales of which complement activities in other, related cosmetic specialties.
Interested parties are invited to use English for their communications, including the initial contact.

As a consultancy firm working on behalf of a leading European group in the retail perfume and beauty products market, we are publishing this announcement of an acquisition opportunity.
Given the growth projections for this sector, the company management is currently pursuing a horizontal integration expansion plan. The aim is to acquire companies that would ensure a greater penetration and geographic coverage in individual domestic markets in Europe by increasing their number of retail locations.
To this end, the target company or group might fall into one of the following categories:

- direct competitor in terms of geographic distribution and competitive positioning;
- retail chains with similar competitive positioning but complementary geographic coverage;
- retail chains targeting the same geographic market but positioned in a different market sector in terms of price.
In order to evaluate these elements, we ask that interested parties looking for further details provide a detailed outline of their target market, geographic coverage and distribution channels.

Leading multinational luxury and fashion group is planning to make a major investment in its beauty department.
The group’s strategy revolves around filling out its existing product lines and covering the skincare sector by purchasing a brand-owning company with high-end products and a commanding position in the market. Given that the investment is aimed at achieving significant penetration in the Chinese market with a product offering that effectively exploits the growing demand in this sector, the target’s brand must enjoy good brand awareness in the Asian market and China in particular.
All negotiations are to be conducted on an exclusive basis.
