Review Noodles in Australia / MarketResearch.com:Plain noodles showed excellent results over the review period with 15% volume growth in 2003, making it the star performer in noodles. Recently, an emerging trend was for consumers to stay at home, rather than go out for dinner. Research shows that while increasingly busy consumers are having greater difficulty finding the time and inclination to prepare and cook a full meal, there is a degree of guilt associated with the consumption of prepared meals. This suits the nature of plain noodles well, as they are extremely convenient to prepare, very quick and easy to cook and they replicate restaurant food accurately.

Review Snack Bars in Singapore / MarketResearch.com:Granola bars will continue to make up the biggest proportion of snack bar consumption in Singapore in 2003, with around 54% of both value and volume sales. Granola bars are expected to achieve sales approaching S$6 million and 280 tonnes in 2003. This represents growth of 8% in both current value and volume terms from 2002. Although growth remains strong, this is largely due to sales growing from a small base. Granola bars have seen declining value and volume growth rates for two consecutive years. Much of the decline can be attributed to lack of promotional activity in snack bars. Although the entry of new brands, such as Mother Earth, have fuelled growth for granola bars, they have also created more competition for existing brands, which include Uncle Toby's and Quaker Chewy Bars. As Mother Earth snack bars are priced lower, value growth of granola bars is slower than volume growth.

Review Oils and Fats in Spain / MarketResearch.com:Cooking fats are set to continue the declining trend witnessed over the review period, with volume and value sales falling by 13% and 15%, respectively. However, this does represent an improvement compared to the stronger decline experienced over the 1998-2003 period, when sales fell by over 30%. The lack of industry investment in this old-fashioned product explains the pessimistic outlook and the lack of any prospect of recovery. Spreadable oils and fats is also predicted to witness a decline in volume and constant value terms. Increased competition from functional versions that satisfy growing demand for healthy products among Spaniards will be the main reason underpinning this poor performance. Nevertheless, if fat-free versions enriched with calcium or vitamins reach the market over the forecast period, and are supported by high-profile TV campaigns, there is a possibility that the decline in demand may be reversed, although this remains speculation.

Review Bakery Products in Thailand / MarketResearch.com:Sales of bakery products in Thailand increased by almost 8% in current value terms in 2002 such that the total value reached almost Bt25billion. In terms of consumer demand, total retail volume sales reached 329,625 tonnes in 2002, which was an increase of 7. 3% from the previous year. Growth was driven partly by new product development as manufacturers developed new and innovative bakery products to capture consumer interest. The other major growth factor was the improved distribution coverage which vastly increased product availability thus generating more consumer demand. The slightly higher value growth than volume growth was mainly due to a minor increase in average unit price of bakery products. In 2003, retail sales of total bakery are expected to continue to grow at a healthy rate, projected by 7. 6% growth in current value terms over 2002. Consumer demand is expected to grow as changing trends lead to more bakery consumption among urban consumers. The estimated per capita volume consumption of bakery product in 2003 is 5. [+]7 Kg per head, a significant increase from 4. 6 Kg per head in 1998.

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 Snack Bars in Ireland / MarketResearch.com:The snack bars sector performed extremely well over the review period and is expected to continue doing so. Key factors driving growth in this sector are a move towards convenience, health and a shift in people’s eating habits, including more between-meals snacking or the replacement of meals altogether by more frequent smaller amounts of food. People also tend to eat at different places, such as in cars, on train stations or behind their desks. Snack bars are involved in all of these trends.

Review Soup in Australia / MarketResearch.com:Sales of soups were worth A$245 million in Australia in 2003. In 2003 soup posted growth of 3. 2% in current value terms, driven by stronger sales of newer delivery formats, particularly chilled soup. However in volume terms sales contracted by 4%, due to a decline in sales of traditional canned soups. Consumers increasingly choose to purchase smaller quantities of higher-priced premium soups than to stick with standard products. This is particularly the case amongst young independent consumers and couples, who buy exotic soups and breads to form quick and easy meals.

Review Oils and Fats in Singapore / MarketResearch.com:Spreadable oils and fats are expected to register value sales of S$5 million in 2003, representing a moderate current value growth of 2% over 2002. Popular brands include Praise, Flora and Meadow Lea. Praise remained the leading brand in 2002 with 28% value share. The demand for spreadable oils and fats is driven by increased health concerns. However, health reports are sometimes confusing. Different health reports showed varied conclusions about good and bad cholesterol. Manufacturers are wary of making explicit health claims on their products but rather seek to promote the benefits of added ingredients such as Omega 3 and Omega 6. Industry sources also cited that consumers best accept low-salt, low-fat and low-cholesterol spreadable oils and fats. Functional oils and spreads, which are gaining popularity in other countries, have yet to catch on in Singapore.

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.

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 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.

Review Bakery Products in Greece / MarketResearch.com:Greek bakery products sales are expected to reach 750,737 tonnes, and be worth just over EUR2 billion in 2003. These figures would represent increases of 0. 5% in volume and 5. 2% in current value terms over 2002. The growth rate difference reflects the stable, robust nature of artisanal products, and the increased popularity of goods at higher unit prices, which are boosting the value performance. Value growth is being affected mainly by growth in biscuits, which are expected to reach a value of more than EUR162 million in 2003, representing an increased of 8. 8% in current value terms on 2002. More than 55% of bakery products are unbranded, and stem from artisanal sales of baked goods. This is mainly due to the influence of artisanal bread. Greek companies with strong shares and customer loyalty dominate sales of bakery products. [+]Local manufacturers can provide fresh and at the same time traditional products that are also adjusted more quickly to Greek consumers’ tastes. This is the reason why consumers prefer local Greek bakery goods.

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.
