Abstract
RNCOS "Indian Food and Beverages Forecast (2007-2011)" report gives an
in-depth analysis of the present and future prospects of the Indian food and
beverages industry. It looks into the industry in detail with foci on
organized food retailing, consumer food purchasing behaviour, food processing
industry and packed/convenience food industry. This report helps clients to
analyze the factors and examine the opportunities critical to the success of
food and beverages industry in India.
Key Findings
- Supermarket sales will expand at a much higher rate than other retail
formats. This is because greater number of higher income Indians will prefer
to shop at supermarkets because of convenience, higher standards of hygiene,
and attractive ambience.
- It is expected that fruit consumption will increase at a CAGR of 4.33% for
the period spanning from 2007-2011, highest among all the food products taken
in this report.
- The processed-food market is the main focus for foreign companies as this
segment is underdeveloped and presents enormous potential for growth. The
growth of modern, organized retailing - in contrast to the kiosks and small
shops from which Indians have been purchasing food traditionally - will also
increase the demand for value-added foods.
- Rising household incomes, increasing urbanization, changing lifestyles and
the rapid growth of the private-sector and dairy-processing industry should
lead to greater demand for value-added, milk-based products, such as processed
cheese, table butter and ice cream.
- Rising incomes will make fish more affordable for a larger segment of the
population. It is expected that the consumption per head will increase at a
CAGR of 3.45% for the forecasted period.
- The growth rate of soft drink sales will decelerate during the forecasted
period due to pesticide contamination issues and growing popularity of fruit
juice drinks and bottled water.
- Coffee consumption is likely to expand at a rapid rate during the
forecasted period. It is expected that it will increase at a CAGR of 10.05%
for the period spanning from 2007-2011.
