Key Highlights
•    An aging population is fueling demand for healthy, nutritious and organic food in Germany. Many foodservice operators have already included, or are in the process of including, healthy and nutritious menus both in the full-service and fast-food and snacks formats.
•    Germany's unemployment declined from 8% in 2008 to 6.1% in mid-2011. Increasing levels of employment and disposable income are expected to positively impact foodservice transactions in key sub-channels such as restaurants and pubs, clubs and bars.
•    Since 2004, tourism in Germany has grown at a higher rate than in the rest of Europe, peaking at 60.3 million in 2010. The increase in tourism is expected to have a positive effect on the German accommodation industry and will also drive demand for foodservices in the accommodation and leisure channels.
•    The mobile phone penetration rate in Germany stood much higher than hundred percent in 2011 and is expected to gain another 25%-30% by 2016, fuelled mainly by higher use of smartphones in the country. Smartphones have enabled consumers to give instant online reviews of restaurants, bars and pubs, in particular through social networking sites.
•    As consumers in Germany increasingly adopt healthier diets, ethnically oriented and “free-from” foods are gaining market share in the country’s foodservice industry. Lactose- and gluten-free food and probiotic dairy products are rapidly growing in popularity.

Research Report on Supply & Demand of Dairy and Products in China 2011/2012

This report depicts the complete picture of the status of China’s dairy industry in 2011, including production of raw milk and processed products, dairy consumption, dairy trade, trend of the price for raw milk and processed products, operation of the dairy industry, dairy market competition situation, revenues of the key processing companies and investment situation. The report also covers the situation of production, consumption and trade of the main dairy producing and trading countries, the impact from the world dairy market to China’s dairy industry. The report also has a forecast on the trend of China’s dairy industrial development in 2012.

2011 was an important turning point for the development of China’s dairy industry, there was acceleration of the transition from coarse quantity growth to intensive quality efficiency, and there was transition from super conventional unregulated development towards stable orderly growth. There were both opportunities and challenges for China’s dairy industry.

From the perspective of challenges, CPI kept on moving up and there was overall surge of commodity price in 2011. The price for feed and fodder, price for fuel and labor rose, these raised the production cost of raw milk constantly. More and more smallholder farmers were forced to give up dairy farming thanks to the faster growth of both cost and expenditure than price for milk. During the same period of time, the input-output efficiency of scaled farming was much better than that of the smallholders, whereas the proportion of scaled farming in raw milk production climbed rapidly. China is one of the countries that had the global highest raw milk price. The too high raw milk price did not only weaken the competitiveness of China’s dairy industry in the world, but also made it difficult to export dairy exports and imposed a huge cost pressure on domestic dairy processing companies. Processing companies were forced to adjust their product structure and to raise the proportion of high value added products so as to maintain and improve the gross profit margin. The too high dairy price restrained consumption, the per capita dairy consumption of residents lingered at the same level. In 2011 the domestic price for raw milk and milk-based raw materials sustained at a high level, whereas the international products were more competitive than the domestic made both in quality and price. Meanwhile the negative impacts from the dairy quality and safety incidents did not vanish completely, there was a continual growth of dairy import to China, especially both full-cream and skim milk powder which saw a record level of import. Raw material milk powder import is estimated to be close to 500,000 tons in 2011, up 20% from 2010. The huge import brought a primary impact on China’s milk powder sector and even the whole dairy farming sector which face a severe market environment.

Packaged Food in Slovenia

Healthy value growth continues in packaged food in Slovenia during 2011
Packaged food in Slovenia is expected to have performed well during 2011, with positive growth projected across the majority of packaged food categories. However, when comparing growth rates from 2011 with growth from previous years of the review period, it is also clear that growth is slowing down in the majority of packaged food categories. This is mainly result of the residual effects of the global financial crisis, which is leading to Slovenian consumers thinking twice before parting with any amount of money, no matter how small. The ongoing high level of price sensitivity in Slovenia is leading many consumers to turn towards lower-priced packaged food, especially private label.

Health and wellness and greater convenience remain the major trends
Two major trends had a significant impact on packaged food in Slovenia during 2010 and the first half of 2011. The first of these is the health and wellness trend, which remained the most influential trend in packaged food in Slovenia throughout the second half of the review period. As health awareness continues to rise among Slovenian consumers, demand for natural and healthier products is increasing. As a result of this, packaged food made using natural ingredients which offer additional benefits such as fortification with vitamins and calcium performed very well during 2010 and 2011, as did packaged food which contains less fat and fewer calories. Furthermore, packaged food which targets consumers with specific health needs also prospered during 2010 and 2011. The second important trend influencing packaged food in Slovenia during the second half of the review period was the rising demand for greater convenience. This arose as a result of Slovenians having less spare time than ever, leading them to demand packaged food which can be prepared and consumed quickly and easily.

The predominance of domestic producers is set to continue
Slovenian consumers generally prefer domestic packaged food brands and products and this has resulted in domestic producers dominating packaged food for some time. Artisanal bakeries and Ljubljanske Mlekarne dd are the leading players in overall Slovenia packaged food industry. These are all domestic producers and a similar picture also becomes apparent when looking at the company rankings within specific categories. In the majority of packaged food categories, the leading producers are all domestic companies. Nevertheless, the influence of multinational companies remains highly evident and cannot be ignored.

The popularity of one-stop-shopping continues to build
Slovenian consumers generally enjoy purchasing many grocery items at one place, which is the main reason for grocery retailers holding the vast majority of distribution share within packaged food in the country throughout the review period. Supermarkets/hypermarkets remains the most popular distribution channel for packaged food in Slovenia, although the popularity of discounters increased during the second half of the review period as the global economic crisis took its toll on Slovenia’s economy. This was mainly due to the lower prices attached to the products offered within discounters outlets, which attract a significant proportion of Slovenia’s generally price-sensitive consumers. Apart from large format grocery retailers, other important distribution channels for packaged food in Slovenia are small grocery retailers, specifically convenience stores, which was the most important small grocery retailers channel for the distribution of packaged food in Slovenia during 2011. However, these small grocery retailers channels are steadily losing distribution value share in the majority of packaged food categories due to still rising popularity of one-stop shopping and the rising demand for the lower prices charged for goods through chained large format grocery retailers.

The future of packaged food in Slovenia remains positive
Packaged food in Slovenia is expected to perform well during 2011, with positive value sales growth also expected to continue throughout the forecast period. However, when comparing the projected performance of packaged food in Slovenia for the forecast period with the growth registered during the review period, it is clear that the growth rates are set to be lower during the forecast period than they were during the review period. This is expected to be mainly due to the lingering effects of the financial and economic instability in Europe, specifically in smaller countries of the Eurozone, and the ongoing price-sensitivity of Slovenian consumers. As soon as the global and regional economic situation improves, however, value sales growth rates in packaged food in Slovenia can be expected to begin rising again.

Packaged Food in Bosnia-Herzegovina

Published: November 2011
Price: $ 6500


Growth, inflation, recession, recovery
During the first half of the review period the Bosnia-Herzegovina Packaged Food Market grew strongly. Main drivers of the market in 2006 and 2007 were expansion of consumers’ disposable income and penetration of large chained retailers, which significantly improved the range of products offered to consumers in Bosnia-Herzegovina. 2008 is the year remembered by volatility of food prices across the world. This was the first in a series of shocks which followed until 2011. During 2009 the global financial crisis spread to Bosnia-Herzegovina and the domestic economy grinded to a halt and began to decline. Recession continued throughout 2010. This negativity in the environment was reflected in a significant decline of Bosnian and Herzegovinian consumers’ disposable income. Like most fast-moving consumer goods, sales of packaged food suffered. However, some categories performed better than others, for example private label brands and basic foodstuffs. In 2011 we begin to see first signs of market recovery in Bosnia-Herzegovina.

Inflation and high unemployment delay serious recovery
The packaged food market as well as the economy in Bosnia-Herzegovina began to recover from the recession during 2011. Still, it is not all blue skies yet. Prices of basic foodstuffs started to grow at the end of 2010 and continued going up in 2011. Categories most affected by price volatility are chocolate confectionery, bakery products and oils and fats, incidentally the same categories which drove price inflation during 2008. Nevertheless, 2011 performance of packaged foods in Bosnia-Herzegovina is expected to be an improvement relative to 2010 and 2009. Manufacturers and retailers have adapted their portfolios, focusing on economy products and private label. Purchasing power of consumers is still negatively affected by a high unemployment rate, but there is work to be found in grey areas of the economy.

Dominance of large regional players
Packaged Food in Bosnia-Herzegovina - Several large regional manufacturing groups have established their dominance over the packaged food market in Bosnia-Herzegovina. Packaged food manufacturing companies run by the Croatian concern Agrokor are heading the market, relying on strong support from its sister company Konzum, which grew into an absolute leader in Bosnian and Herzegovinian grocery retailing during the review period. Danube Foods and Podravka have also managed to leverage their wide production portfolios and financial superiority to claim the remaining spots on top of the packaged foods market in Bosnia-Herzegovina. Bosnian and Herzegovinian consumers are obviously assigning great value to regional brands, perceiving them to offer best value for money. Domestic manufacturers are often perceived to offer inferior quality, which is why they need to price their products below those of regional and international competition.

Polarisation of retailing
Packaged food retailing in Bosnia-Herzegovina continues to be dominated by small grocery retailers, but these outlets are losing ground to large retailers, as supermarkets/ hypermarkets has continued to gain value share over the review period at the expense of independent small grocers. These outlets are able to offer best deals to consumers that are increasingly interested in price. Hence, strong performance of private label. Retailers which have achieved largest penetration of private label in their outlets are: Konzum, Mercator, Tus and DM. Large retail outlets are also able to offer consumers the widest range of brands and products to choose from. Independent small retailers are forced to specialise, increasingly serving as convenience specialists, price specialists or food specialists. Since leading manufacturers shifted their focus towards key accounts (large chained retailers), smaller manufacturers with limited advertising resources are beginning to focus on smaller independents where they can achieve better visibility and better sales. Convenience stores, in keeping with the general trend towards convenience, has increased its share over the review period.
