The wellness and beauty industry in India has rapidly evolved from being a highly unstructured ecosystem in the 90s to a more active and growing sector today. With health and wellness becoming mainstream, this industry expects a massive boom in the coming years. Recent estimates by FICCI and EY suggest that the industry will grow at a CAGR of nearly 12% for the next 5 years, and reach an estimated high of Rs 1.5 trillion by 2020. The biggest challenge in the growth of this industry is the unavailability of trained manpower. The I2CAN (Indian Institute of Cosmetology, Aesthetics, and Nutrition) is committed to ensuring that trained manpower is available and hence, fuelling the growth of the industry.
