Review Snack Bars in Spain / MarketResearch.com:2003 is expected to see a higher number of developments, after the lull apparent in the previous year. The first tangible example of this trend was the launch in March 2003 by Hero of a new line of snack bars incorporating fruit pieces. This might be followed by other companies such as Nestlé and Kellogg, in the shape of lines featuring a wider range of flavours. Such developments will help to maintain positive growth in value in 2003. However, much of the growth is expected to be driven by traditional corn-based snack bars, where the bulk of investment by the industry, in promotional and innovation terms, is expected to be channelled.

Review Oils and Fats in Germany / MarketResearch.com:Functional spreadable oils and fats had another good year in 2002, growing by around 12% in volume terms and 10. 5% in current value terms, due to the products' added health and nutritional value. These spreads have a 'functional' element, helping to reduce cholesterol levels. A high level of cholesterol is considered to be the highest risk factor for cardiovascular diseases, which is allegedly the biggest cause of deaths in Germany. Functional spreadable oils and fats first started taking off following the launch of innovative, new product developments of the leading brands Becel pro-activ (owned by Unilever) and Deli-Reform Pro Bios (owned by Walter Rau Lebensmittelwerke) in 2000. Their success has clearly ensured slower growth for conventional spreadable oils and fats and has also impacted butter sales.

Review Baby Food in Venezuela / MarketResearch.com:The majority of baby food products are imported or involve a high percentage of imported ingredients. Therefore, the falling value of the bolívar against the US dollar made these products too expensive for most Venezuelan families. Constant value growth contracted 14% in 2002, and a general increase of prices is likely to cause a 15% decrease in constant value sales in 2003.

Review Confectionery in Norway / MarketResearch.com:Chocolate is expected to be worth NKr3,985 million in 2003. With no reputation for producing chocolate, such as the Swiss, it may be surprising to some that Norwegians are among the most keen chocolate consumers in the world. The per capita consumption of chocolate was 6. 1kg in 2003. According to industry representatives, the explanation behind this is “tradition, the milk chocolate, Freia and to some extent chocolate as a meal”. This means that when Norwegians consume chocolate, they usually buy milk chocolate with high milk content. Kraft, known as Freia, produces the leading product and brand loyalty is very strong, so the company’s appeal supports sales. Furthermore some formats of chocolate such as Kvikk Lunch serve as an in-between meal during school or during the many hours of outdoor activity that Norwegians normally engage in.

Review Confectionery in Egypt / MarketResearch.com:Sales of confectionery are expected to reach E£2. 9 billion in 2003 up 4. 2% in current terms over 2002. Volume sales remain healthy with total sales of 84,976 tonnes expected in 2003, up 1. 1% over 2002. Value growth led volume growth due to price increases as a result of successive devaluations over the review period and a further one in 2003 causing the Egyptian Pound to lose around 67% of its original value. Volume growth was roughly proportionate to the population growth rate in Egypt in 2002, at around 2. 3%. The years 2001, 2002 and 2003 were hard on most Egyptians as a series of currency devaluations drove up prices, while the general slowing down of the economy kept disposable incomes low for most consumers. This was reflected in a general fall in demand for goods considered non-essential or luxury items. [+]
In Egypt, confectionery products are generally considered to be for children, with many older people not consuming them.

Review Baby Food in Thailand / MarketResearch.com:In 2003, baby food is expected to be worth almost Bt8. 8 billion, up 1. 1% in current value terms on 2002. Sales grew by 11. 3% in current value terms over the review period. Baby food volume is expected to edge up marginally by 0. 4% in 2003 compared with a year earlier. The modest performance of the baby food sector will to a large extent be due to the relatively poor performance of milk formula. During the review period the population growth rate declined year-on-year and is currently estimated at approximately 800,000 babies per year. There are indications that this figure is expected to continually decline, and thus affect sales of baby food. [+]
Advertising spending was heavy in 2002, and is expected to continue at similar levels in 2003, as competitors look to increase their shares.

Review Pasta in Netherlands / MarketResearch.com:Italian cuisine is the most popular foreign cuisine in the Netherlands. An industry source stated that “Dutch consumers are demanding more authentic Italian products and are willing to pay more for their Italian pasta dish. Consequently demands for high quality and fresh ingredients increase. ” Industry sources also stated that “the trend among consumers of preferring healthy food that requires less cooking time is an ongoing one and chilled pasta gives consumers what they are demanding. ” These trends explain not only the success of chilled/fresh pasta, sales of which increased by 48. 5% over the review period, albeit from a small base but also the decline of canned pasta which is perceived to be unhealthy. Chilled pasta, with a 15% value share in 2002, is likely to experience a 5. 6% value increase in 2003.

Review Oils and Fats in Portugal / MarketResearch.com:Health concerns appear not to have had an effect on this subsector as around 95% of total sales are accounted for by salted butter. Portuguese consumers still place more importance on taste rather than health factors in this area.

Over the review period as a whole, value sales of margarine rose by more than 25%, while volume sales were up by just over 8%. In recent years, this subsector has seen growth in product variety, as margarine with added garlic, onion and/or herbs have been introduced.

Review Baby Food in Germany / MarketResearch.com:Pharmacy/drugstores and supermarkets/hypermarkets continue to dominate the distribution of baby food. Both outlets look set to account for around 45% of value sales in 2003 Supermarkets/hypermarkets increased its value share by over one percentage point over the review period, reflecting the trend for convenience shopping. This channel has also become popular due to the broad range of products it offers, as well as its convenient location and competitive prices. Pharmacy/drugstores is the preferred outlet for specialist products, such as hypoallergenic milk formula, but parents often switch to cheaper outlets after receiving the initial advice from the pharmacist. Pharmacy/drugstores looks set to account for 45% of value sales in 2003, which constitutes a decrease of over two percentage points over the review period. Drugstores make the largest part of value and volume sales, offering a wider range of products and lower prices than pharmacies. Drugstores also benefit from offering baby care products, such as soap and nappies/diapers, which makes this kind of outlet attractive to parents.

Review Snack Bars in Thailand / MarketResearch.com:Being a small niche of the packaged food industry in Thailand, the number of snack bar products available in Thailand is limited. However, at the time of analysis in 2003, Euromonitor has detected a recognized number of new outlets offering snack bar products, especially energy bars such as modern department stores and upmarket sport stores. Nonetheless, the level of advertising or promotional strategies being implemented by key snack bar players in Thailand is still limited and the product awareness is considerably low as well. As a result, breakfast bars is projected to continue growing but at a slowing rate compared to previous years. All in all, Euromonitor expects that total sales value will grow by 3% in current value terms in 2003 such total value sales register only Bt162. 2 million by the end of the year.

Review Oils and Fats in Turkey / MarketResearch.com:There was a switch towards vegetable and seed oils from margarine, resulting in continual value decline for margarine during the review period. In addition, there is a preference for butter over margarine in rural areas. It is cheaper for rural consumers to make butter themselves, rather than buying margarine. Margarine is not well accepted in rural areas. There butter and some home-made animal fats are preferred. While there was considerable urbanisation in last twenty years, most urban consumers have rural relatives, who provide them with butter and such fats. However, with increasing urbanisation, this situation may change and demand for margarine will grow to match the level of demand for liquid oils and fats. Spreadable oils and fats had nearly 19% value growth over the review period, mainly due to rapid new product developments supported by advertising campaigns.

Review Sweet and Savoury Snacks in Portugal / MarketResearch.com:Sweet and savoury snacks in Portugal is estimated to reach a value of EUR88 million in 2003, equivalent to total volume sales of 16,469 tonnes. This represents a rise of 1. 4% in value terms and 1. 6% in volume terms on 2002. These growth rates are lower than and equal to the respective CAGRs (compound annual growth rates) for the review period, indicating that 2003 was a stable year for sweet and savoury snacks in Portugal. The main reason behind this is the economic recession that started in the second half of 2002 and kept affecting consumer purchasing decisions throughout 2003. Since sweet and savoury snacks products can be defined as low-frequency impulse purchases, they were naturally affected by the economic situation. Over the review period as a whole, savoury snacks demonstrated notable growth in current value terms, achieving a rate of 12%, compared to volume growth of just over 8%. The better value growth is because consumers tended to trade up to more expensive products during the review period.

Review Bakery Products in Turkey / MarketResearch.com:In 2003, value sales of bakery products are expected to reach around US$9 billion, representing a value growth of 4% on 2002. This growth indicates that bakery products are recovering from the economic crises that hit the country in 2001. Growth is fuelled by new product developments, more intensive advertising campaigns by major manufacturers and, particularly, rapid population growth and changing lifestyles. Especially in the case of baked goods, population growth is contributing to rising bread consumption. In addition, thanks to busier lifestyles and the increasing number of women in employment, most female consumers prefer to buy ready-made baked goods, such as cakes and pastries rather baking such products at home. This also explains the increase in industrially made products. Value sales of bakery products declined in 2001 as a result of the economic crises during that year. However, volume sales were not affected negatively, although lower growth rates were demonstrated compared to the previous years.
