Private Workshop Case Study: Natural Cosmetic Ingredients & Formulation Challenges
Organic Monitor conducted a workshop that addressed the major challenges companies face when formulating natural cosmetics. The workshop began by looking at what constitutes a natural and organic product, highlighting the ingredients that are commonly found in such products.

The workshop leader then gave details of the synthetic chemicals that are typically absent in natural & organic cosmetics. An assessment was made of the natural alternatives, their functionality and performance. The workshop then gave a detailed review of natural & organic standards, comparing and contrasting the permissible ingredients of each.

The interactive workshop enabled delegates to put forward the major problems they face when formulating natural and organic cosmetics. Key pointers and guidance were given to overcome challenges involving formulations, ingredients and synthetic chemicals. The delegates left the workshop with clear guidelines on how to produce / re-formulate natural & organic cosmetics.

Exporting Seminar Case Study: Market Entry Guidelines for American Trade Delegation
Organic Monitor was invited to conduct a seminar for a delegation of American organic food companies. The trade delegation was looking to start / increase exports of their organic products in Europe and required business advise and pointers on market entry strategy.

A customised seminar was given to the American companies. The seminar started by giving an overview of the European organic food industry, highlighting the key trends & developments. Details of the leading country markets were given as well as trends related to supply chain, pricing, retailing and product positioning. The second part of the seminar gave market entry guidelines and case studies of companies who have / have not been successful in exporting to the European market. Pointers were given on country markets, distribution partners and marketing strategy.

The seminar enabled the American companies to get an in-depth understanding of the European organic food market. The companies were able to prioritise key country markets and identify key distribution partners. Many of the companies have made successful inroads into the European market as a direct result of the seminar.
