Staple foods in 2024: The big picture
The global ranking of consumption shows Brazil as the fourth largest market for staple foods, especially due to the strong appeal of baked goods to most Brazilians. Bread is a very typical product in consumers’ routine, and bakeries are very popular in the country.
Key trends in 2024
The Brazilian consumer landscape has undergone significant transformation in recent years. Economic uncertainties have compelled consumers to become more discerning and cost-conscious.
Competitive landscape
In today’s rapidly evolving market, companies are constantly striving to innovate and adapt to changing consumer preferences. To stay competitive, businesses are investing in research and development to create new and improved products.
Channel developments
The foodservice industry in Brazil is grappling with the impact of rising input costs, particularly for fresh food ingredients. Adverse climate conditions in key producing regions have led to crop failures and reduced yields, driving up prices and reducing the offering and distribution.
What next for staple foods?
Inflation control, the stabilisation of the Brazilian real against the dollar, and the reduction in the national unemployment rate are set to positively impact the disposable incomes of local consumers and contribute to further growth for staple foods in the forecast period, as they look for convenient and time-saving solutions. The trends emerging in staple foods in Brazil align closely with the strategic topics identified by Euromonitor International, including the segmentation of consumption occasions, increasing demand for plant-based options, heightened dietary awareness, and a preference for local products.
