Steady demand despite growing price pressures
The cooking ingredients and meals market in Estonia is characterised by a relatively steady consumer demand, despite ongoing price pressures. Estonians are increasingly health-conscious, favouring higher-quality ingredients, sophisticated recipes, and Mediterranean-style products like olive oil. Local and traditional products remain popular, with pickled cucumbers, regional jams, and honey benefiting from a high level of consumer loyalty. Private label ranges are expanding rapidly, led by Lidl and Maxima, though brand loyalty limits their full penetration. Supermarkets and hypermarkets remain the dominant distribution channels, while discounters are leading growth and e-commerce is expanding gradually. Categories linked to outdoor activities, like barbecue sauces, are weather-sensitive, and staple sauces such as mayonnaise and ketchup face stagnation due to saturation and nutritional concerns.
