PROSPECTS AND OPPORTUNITIES
Ongoing sales will be supported by baseline demand
Sales of cheese will remain positive over the forecast period, albeit with value growth low and volume growth flat. Sales will be supported by ongoing consumer demand for cheese as a staple product, supported by innovation in packaging, convenient formats, and the growing appeal of premium and local varieties.
Health and wellness trends drive developments in cheese
Health and wellness are driving trends in cheese. Consumers are increasingly prioritising natural, organic, and functional cheeses, seeking options that support digestive health, protein intake, and overall wellbeing.
Government price caps affect cheese
As part of broader government efforts to control food price inflation, cheese was added to the list of price-capped products, alongside other staples. The policy requires retailers to offer at least one product per category below the maximum price threshold.
