How to evaluate a cosmetics and personal care supplier
What to compare in the evidence before you shortlist.
- Product descriptions and HS codes against what you need to buy — they describe what moved, not the company’s full range.
- Recency: the latest shipment date, and whether shipments recur or were a one-off.
- Buyer relationships: how many US buyers, and whether any repeat.
- Origin and loading ports, for lead time and routing.
- Shipment consistency across the analysed window.
Methodology and limitations
Counts are suppliers named as shipper on US ocean import records, after forwarders and consolidators are removed; shipments are bills of lading in the analysed window; the industry is classified from each supplier’s own descriptions. Air, road and rail freight are not included. Full definitions, update cadence and limitations: methodology.
Frequently asked questions
How many cosmetics and personal care manufacturers are in Mati’s dataset?
920 cosmetics and personal care manufacturers and exporters, across 56 countries, with 2,470 US ocean import shipments between them, as of the Sep 10, 2026 data update.
Which countries have the most visible cosmetics and personal care suppliers?
By supplier count: China (237), South Korea (81), France (76). The full split is in the ‘Suppliers by country’ table above.
What products do these suppliers ship?
The largest sub-industries by supplier count are hair care and beauty tools, perfumes and fragrances, soap, bath and hygiene. Each profile lists the verbatim product descriptions from its filings.
How does Mati verify that a supplier is active?
A supplier is listed because its name appears as the shipper on at least one US ocean import record. ‘Active’ means the latest shipment date shown on its profile; the analysed window and the data update date are stated on every page. Activity is evidence that goods moved — it is not a certification, a quality check, or a statement of capacity.
Does shipment activity prove product quality?
No. Shipment counts, buyers and recency show trade activity only. They do not verify product quality, certifications, production capacity, minimum order quantities, pricing, lead times, or whether a company will take on a new buyer. Use the evidence to shortlist, then verify directly.
Can I find US distributors instead of importing?
Yes — 20 US-based distributors, component suppliers and sales arms import in this industry; the most active are listed on this page, and the full directory is at /us-distributors-suppliers.
