PROSPECTS AND OPPORTUNITIES
Cheese will see growth thanks to dynamism of players, investments in production and an improved economy
Cheese is forecast to increase in current value terms over the forecast period, driven by ongoing dynamism among leading category players, who are expected to engage in robust commercial and marketing initiatives and offer competitive prices. Further efforts will be made to broaden distribution across various sales channels, aiming to secure a presence even in more distant locations.
Development of artisanal mature cheese to continue apace, generating competition
An emerging trend among local cheese producers is the promotion and marketing of artisanal cheeses, many of which are crafted on a small scale. These variants are typically distributed on a regional basis and often showcased at trade fairs to boost recognition.
High-end cheeses set to become more visible with an increase in imported brands
In the past two years of the review period, Peru has seen a notable increase in the availability of imported cheeses spanning a broad range of varieties, brands and countries of origin. Several importers have brought innovative, premium-quality cheeses to Peru, which have been well received by local consumers – particularly aficionados who are willing to pay higher prices.
