Best Consumer Stock Picks For 2013 | Growth Fairly Priced

Today I like to hunt for the best consumer growth stock picks of the next year 2013. The consumer sector is one of my favorite investment areas. 

Nearly half of my investments were made in consumer related product companies. I really love this sector due to the fact that there are so many well diversified companies with low risks. 

Stocks from the sector raise dividends like clockwork and sharing their business success with shareholders. 

In addition, I believe that the end-consumer spending will grow steadily because it’s a desire of humans to attain wealth and supply. People also want to represent something special. All ends in rising consumer demand. 

The consumer goods sector has nearly 400 companies listed and most of them are of low growth. Smart investors should take a closer look at the buy opportunities in order to find the best share to invest in.

Let's go! I made a screen of the best consumer growth picks. These are my criteria:

- Forward P/E under 15
- Past 5Y Sales growth over 10 percent
- Earnings per share growth for the next five years over 10 percent
- Operating Margin over 10 percent

Twelve stocks fulfilled these criteria of which six pay dividends and all twelve are currently recommended to buy. The results are dominated by textile, apparel, footwear and accessories stocks.

Here are my favorite stocks:
