Rituals has posted a “record” year in 2024, with sales soaring 21% to £1.79bn (€2.1bn), marking another milestone in the retailer’s growth trajectory.
The Amsterdam-based beauty and wellness brand said the increase, up from £1.46bn (€1.7bn) in 2023, is attributed to a mix of strong organic growth, continued product innovation, and global expansion, with it continuing its commitment to opening one new store every working day.
The brand saw a significant boost in both its physical retail and ecommerce channels, with a 24% increase in store turnover and a 17% rise in ecommerce, now accounting for 15% of total sales.
Rituals ended the year with over 1,300 stores across 42 countries, bolstered by a notable rise in Asia and strong performances in its European markets.
