European Cosmetics Makers Face Supply Crisis Amid Scarcity of Ukraine Resources
KONTAN.CO.ID - PARIS/MILAN. European perfume and cosmetics makers face shortages of paper, glass and some key oils and alcohols. Russia's invasion of Ukraine adds further disruptions to the supply chains for beauty products, driving prices higher amid robust demand.
