Brands labeled as natural, ecological, organic and fair trade are no longer a niche market in the sectors of food, toiletries and home. These products gradually were blended in the general retail and conquered a considerable market share. Currently, these products that appeal to the "responsible consumption" represent an important area of profitable growth.

The consultants expect that the same trend is found in other developed markets. Market studies also point to future growth, with most consumers to indicate the intention of buying more of these products.
