2. Health and Wellness: E-commerce / Big Box Fusion

Target is prioritizing health and wellness to increase sales and market share.

In 2025, wellness – personal care, over-the-counter medicine, nutrition, vitamins and women’s health – was a $10 billion business. Beauty was a $13 billion business.

70% of Target customers made purchases in the category last year.

Health and wellness helped Target post better-than-expected revenue growth – with net sales up 6.7% in its quarterly earnings this month.

In early 2026, Target added close to 1,500 new health and wellness items.

Sales in the beauty category were up 9.5% compared to the same period last year.
