Muted growth in 2025
While staple foods is expected to register healthy current value growth, constant value growth in muted. A further VAT increase in 2025 adds to inflationary pressure and tightens profit margins. Processed meat continues to be the most popular food staple, though volume sales fall. A cold summer impacts sales, as there is less barbecues. Private label continues to gain value share, largely due to the continuing expansion of discounter Lidl. Over the forecast period, consumers will seek healthier options, with products carrying claims such as natural, organic, no added sugar and featuring clean, simple ingredients making gains.
