The Way Ahead for Page3
As Page3 celebrates its 15th anniversary this year, the brand is witnessing tremendous growth in its business. Now, with 30 outlets, the franchise-modelled business boasts a presence across six Indian states. Moving forward, the brand aims to increase the number of salons to 50 by 2025 and 100 by 2027, by empowering franchisees.
“The salon experience itself has transformed since 2009 when we started our first unit. Today, India boasts a growing demand for what can be termed a niche experience, with five-star qualities in terms of ambience, hygiene, brands and stylists. And we have excelled in offering this experience,” says Shanmugha Kumar, CEO and Director of Page3.
India has emerged as one of the fastest-growing markets for salons. The Indian beauty and personal care market valued at US$ 28 billion in 2023 is expected to register a CAGR of 5.6% during 2024-2032.
“What’s further driving the Indian market is the demand for organic beauty and personal care products, being sought after to improve the texture and appearance of skin, hair and nails,” says Shanmugha. He further adds, “Page3’s key objective is to cater to this niche demand”.
