The trend towards male grooming sees cosmetic packaging designs integrate masculine elements.

Melbourne cosmetics company Black Leopard, for example, worked with Quadpack on a range of men's skincare products for 'the everyday man, weekend warrior, or trend-setter within.

The chosen packs blend together and support the brand claim of 'male skincare that works'.

The packs use Yonwoo’s patented airless technology to protect the formula.

The Black Leopard range uses Yonwoo airless Jumbo and Jumbo Slim, with tubes, a jar, and a roll-on to match.

Matt black finishing gives the packs a different touch sensation, and the purple silk screen is identifiable with the branding.

The shiny silver elevates the 'luxury' element, while maintaining the 'no mess and no fuss' message.

Initially showcased at Cosmoprof Hong Kong 2015, Black Leopard opened up its first store in Chapel Street, Melbourne early this year.

Food & Drink Business

Ferrero has gained more ground in the US through its acquisition of WK Kellogg for $4.7 billion (US$3.1b). Since 2018, Ferrer has acquired Nestle's US chocolate business for $4.25 billion, Kellogg's cookies and fruit snacks unit for $2 billion, and ice cream company Wells Enterprises.

The Australian Competition & Consumer Commission (ACCC) says it won’t oppose Lactalis’ proposed acquisition of Fonterra’s consumer and food service businesses, if the bid goes ahead. While it would see two of the largest buyers of raw milk combine, the ACCC says it is “unlikely” to result in a lessening of competition.
