How consulting firm Fwrd Group is advising brand strategies ahead of the holidays

My take is that revenue will be flat to slightly up in comparison to 2024 - low single-digit growth at max. 2024 was up 4% from projections, which surprised everyone in the beauty industry and across CPG in general. However, with rising costs of living and tariffs - which will start to trickle down to the consumer right in time for the holiday season - consumers have less disposable income to spend, and so they are making extremely conscious decisions about where to spend that.
