Research and analysis highlights
Price has jumped back to the top of the consumer agenda. After several years
of declining importance, the proportion of shoppers mentioning price as a
driver of loyalty to a retailer has risen significantly. In fact it has now
moved back above range and convenience to become the most important factor.
Consumers are shopping around more than ever. With consumer confidence
plummeting and shoppers taking more care of their finances, they are being
motivated to visit more retailers to search out the best value.
The main user share of the Big Four has fallen. The likes of Aldi, Iceland and
Waitrose are expanding their space and offering consumers more targeted
offers, centered around price or premium foods, as an alternative to the
broader offers of the Big Four. In the current climate of consumers shopping
around, this is proving extremely successful.
