(Food-Beverage-News.Com, July 18, 2017 ) "The UK food & grocery market 2017-2022" report offers comprehensive insight and analysis of the market, the major players, the main trends, and consumer attitudes. It provides in-depth analysis of the following: the hot issues impacting the market, strategies for success, market sizes and forecasts, retailer profiles, retailer market shares, consumer data and future outlook.
The UK food & grocery market will grow by 19.6% over the next five years. The market will be primarily driven by inflation, owing to the weakening pound which is driving import costs, peaking at 3.2% in 2019. Inflation will be felt across all categories, most notably in tobacco, alcohol, oils/fats, meat/fish and sugar products. Price competition from discounters will go some way to mitigate price rises but will subsequently impact margins.
- The discounters will add greater pressure on the big four as they widen their presence, especially in regions where they are currently underrepresented. - Online food & grocery sales are forecast to grow by 43.3% in the five years to 2022, driven by investment in fulfilment capabilities by the market leaders, new entrants and online pureplays. - Top-up shopping continues to be important for consumers as they opt for smaller, more frequent, food & grocery shopping missions, with 43.5% of food & grocery consumers shopping at least once every few days.
