Executive summary

Coffee continues to perform strongly

In 2008, hot drinks continued the good performance experienced over the review period, driven by coffee, which accounted for the majority of retail volume and value sales. According to ABIC (Brazilian Coffee Industry Association), the percentage of coffee drinkers, including adults and teenagers, remained high at 91% in 2007. According to ABIC, coffee prices for consumers have not increased in the last 14 months (2007-2008), despite the rising cost of raw material, such as packages, labour, and the cost of public tariffs. In order to safeguard volume sales despite an increase in price, companies offer higher quality products to remain competitive, thereby adding value.

Specialist coffee shops boosts the demand for gourmet coffee

The away-from-home consumption of coffee continued to grow in 2008. The opening of many specialist coffee shops by new and world-famous companies (as well as the expansion of traditional outlets) stimulated the consumption of gourmet coffee, especially among consumers who want to savour the differences in taste and aroma offered by various coffee beans in the on-trade and off-trade channels. In 2008, ABIC started to promote “Círculo do Café de Qualidade” (Quality Coffee Circle, CCQ), a programme aimed at differentiating outlets, promoting certification for coffee shops, restaurants, hotels and other locations. This activity will favour the dissemination of gourmet coffee and speciality coffee in general.

Fragmentation in coffee while flavoured powder drinks welcomes new brands

Coffee is a highly fragmented category in Brazil with over 1,000 companies producing over 2,500 brands. Since 2003, other hot drinks, especially chocolate-based flavoured powder drinks, observed an increase in the number brands and private label products. As chocolate-based flavoured powder drinks are widely consumed, companies have produced a large range of products at a variety of prices. The top five hot drinks manufacturers, Sara Lee Cafés do Brasil Ltda, Melitta do Brasil Indústria e Comércio Ltda, Quaker Brasil Ltda, and Cia Cacique de Café Solúvel continued to increase their value shares, with some fluctuation, over the review period, as a result of strong nationwide distribution, new product developments and advertising support.

Large grocery retailers expand shelf space for private label

The positive overall performance of the industry has stimulated retailers to make more shelf space available for hot drinks, including private label products. Some chained supermarkets/hypermarkets, the most important retail distribution channel for hot drinks, have customised their coffee sections with banners and others ways to provide more information about the varieties of coffee on offer and attract the attention of consumers. Private label was previously seen as a way of offering alternatives to combat the rising prices for brands, but these products are increasingly perceived as quality items. To this end, in 2008, ABMAPRO (Brazilian Association of Own Brands and Outsourcing) launched the ABMAPRO certification, which guarantees the quality of private label products in Brazil. Private label enjoyed a bigger presence in hot drinks and slowly increased its retail value share over the review period.

Health and wellness trends continue to drive innovation

Products positioned as healthy alternatives have attracted the attention of consumers concerned about their diet and they are expected to drive retail value sales over the forecast period. The key consumers of coffee in Brazil are 36-years-old-and-over, while attracting 15-19-year-old consumers will remain to a key challenge for coffee manufacturers. Tea manufacturers benefit from publicity about the health benefits of green tea and white tea in health magazines. Green, and/or white tea are perceived to offer a range of important health benefits such as anti-oxidants, and to lower cholesterol, fight free radicals, strengthen the immune system and accelerate the metabolism. Manufacturers have launched new blends to offer a wider variety of flavours to consumers. Flavoured powder drink manufacturers are also promoting the diversification of their product ranges, in “light”, high-fibre, honey, and added vitamin versions to attract consumers concerned about health and wellness.
