<abstract xmlns="http://www.w3.org/1999/xhtml"><p>The paper deals with the management of product information in a cosmetics retail and information interaction of a retailer with distributors and manufacturers. We developed a list of requirements for the types of information for a product catalogue.

We made sure that one standard to the structure of information did not exist and proposed our own scheme.
