As shown in Worldpanel’s Brand Footprint 2022 report, FMCG spend has grown by 33% in the last decade. The industry has demonstrated incredible resilience and consistency year after year, within a dramatically changeable consumer landscape.
The online channel grew 18 times faster than the industry baseline during that period – increasing its value share of the overall FMCG market by 6% to 7.2%. We expect this trajectory to continue through 2022 and beyond.

This rapid expansion is mirrored at brand level, with 18 of the most-chosen brands online seeing double-digit growth.
Four brands get more than 10% of their consumer reach points (CRPs) from online shopping. Leading the way is L’Oréal Paris, with 18% of its CRPs coming from online purchases – and 50% of the brand’s sales expected to come from ecommerce by 2023.
A big part of this success is due to the brand’s performance in Mainland China, which represents 82% of all its online CRPs. In this market, it has grown its footprint through digital try-ons, building an ecosystem of advocates and social sellers, and offering highly targeted products to appeal to all customers.
