Wish a Perseveringly and Fantastic 2019

Dear readers:

The year of 2018 is the fourth decade of China's Reform and Opening Up. After the great endeavour of past forty years, China has developed into the world's second largest consumer market in terms of daily chemical industry, which has also made tremendous achievements till now.

There are considerable ups and downs in the development of China's daily chemical industry in 2018. Foreign giant companies relied on high-end brands and digitalization but the future of its mass brand line was difficult; local brands were still suffering from the pain of “cutting overcapacity” and indulging in price war; the e-commerce platform flow dividend disappeared and turned to the off-line for support; the"new retail" of cosmetics was just much cry and little wool; department stores began to pay attention to the backflow effect of cosmetic areas,but their operation ability to categories was still weak because of fixed mind.

This year will be the 70thanniversary of the founding of the People's Republic of China as well as for the 90thanniversary of the establishment of China Research Institute of Daily Chemical Industry (hereafter called RIDCI). During the past several decades, as the only national-level research institute among Chinese daily chemical industry, RIDCI has been contributing to the development of the whole field unceasingly.While for China Detergent & Cosmetics, it will keep trying to provide valuable information on Chinese cosmetics and detergent industry,perseveringly.

Let's wish a fantastic 2019.
