Brand Audit: S.W.O.T Analysis!Strengths The Face Shop has good brand awareness due to the large number of stores it has in Singapore. The brand concept has been well-received so far. Also, in Singapore, Korean brands are trusted for their good quality skin products
Weaknesses There is an increasing number of competitors in the local market. The Face Shop is losing their younger customer base.
Opportunities The growing popularity of Korean culture and music in Singapore has lead to increased interest in Korean products. The Face Shop's use of Korean celebrities helps in attracting younger consumers into the store.
Threats There is a risk of newer and fresher Korean counterparts overtaking The Face Shop. Also, more and more brands are getting into the 'organic beauty' market. #
