Founded in Australia in 2008, clean beauty brand Grown Alchemist has found its niche among millennial and Gen Z shoppers in recent years. L’Occitane Group looks to capitalise on its multi-brand strategy with the global travel retail debut of Grown Alchemist at Sydney Airport’s Terminal 1, in collaboration with Heinemann Australia.

Estelle de Bure, managing director of global travel retail, L’Occitane Group, said: “The opening is a milestone for Grown Alchemist and L’Occitane Group, as we seek to introduce our chic, edgy, and clean beauty brand to a new generation of travelling consumers. Offering a unique mix of breakthrough science, sustainable values, and an urban edge, the minimalist boutique in Sydney is set to drive awareness and trial among travellers – with a strategic focus on Gen Z.”
Rooted in Australia’s sustainability mindset, Grown Alchemist draws from over 20 years of product development and formulation research. The result is a multi-category brand that offers a holistic approach to skincare, backed by science.
With plans to become B Corp-certified by 2024 and offset its carbon footprint within the supply chain, Grown Alchemist continues to introduce refill pouches made from 100 percent recycled materials.
