The Indigenous Plants Task Team (IPTT) in collaboration with PhytoTrade Africa contracted Survey Warehouse to conduct a rapid assessment snapshot of the usage of and attitudes towards natural and organic cosmetics in the Namibian market. This assessment will form part of a wider initiative to better understand the formal, national market for indigenous plant products. The study aimed to identify gaps and provide essential information for decision-making that would be beneficial for the development of a strategy to support SMEs in Namibia. Although the study was limited in various respects, it may serve as a basis for further market research.
