PROSPECTS AND OPPORTUNITIES
Improved consumer purchasing power supports a recovery in butter consumption
Sales of butter and spreads are expected to rise over the forecast period overall. After a period of inflation-driven price sensitivity and cross-border shopping, demand for butter is projected to recover as prices gradually return to more typical levels.
Health-driven purchasing habits to boost premium and functional products
As economic conditions improve, Slovak consumers are anticipated to become more selective, with growing interest in added-value and health-oriented butter and spread products. Functional ingredients such as added vitamins and minerals will gain importance as health awareness increases, while lactose-free and plant-based variants will cater to dietary sensitivities and lifestyle preferences.
Sustainability messaging supports plant-based spreads, but tradition sustains butter
Sustainability will remain a key theme in the butter and spreads category, with plant-based margarine products expected to position themselves as more environmentally responsible alternatives. These products are gaining traction among younger and urban consumers, partly due to influencer marketing and appearances on popular cooking shows.
