Executive summary

Off trade drives hot drinks

Hot drinks in Portugal showed only a slightly positive growth in total volume in 2008. However, hot drinks was driven by off-trade performance that, in volume terms, increased because of the upsurge in coffee and tea consumption in the country. Foodservice volume suffered a decline in 2008. This was due to the wide choice of coffee available off-trade, and this made consumers cut on-trade consumption.

Portuguese continue to love coffee

Despite the health trend with its emphasised concerns about coffee consumption, Portuguese consumers continued to savour coffee. As a result, coffee accounted for the bulk of Portuguese hot drinks in 2008. Despite the tendency for more in house consumption, on trade still accounts for the greatest part of the market in volume terms. Although Starbucks entered Portugal at the end of 2008, most Portuguese preferred to have coffee in local independent cafés.

Nestlé Portugal SA leads sales

In Portuguese hot drinks, Nestlé Portugal led sales by a huge margin. This company’s success was due to its long presence in Portugal, combined with the fact that it was also present in most categories of hot drinks. Its adversity with very few competitors in some categories was an additional reason for its impressive performance.

Supermarkets/hypermarkets dominates off-trade distribution

Supermarkets/hypermarkets continued to increase its lead in off-trade volume share of hot drinks in 2008. These outlets were able to offer a wide range of products at highly competitive prices – including products from the leading multinational producers favoured by consumers. The fact that they offered convenient parking solutions and were open long hours contributed to consumer preference for supermarkets/hypermarkets. In addition, supermarkets/hypermarkets benefited from various campaigns, and major brands targeted it as the main point to promote new products.

Hot drinks expected to show moderate growth

Over the forecast period, hot drinks is expected to continue increasing its volume sales, although at a rate lower than during the review period. The major factor impacting the category is expected to be the strain posed by economic conditions that are anticipated to be quite severe for consumers and families over the forecast years. ‘Recession’ is the term being used; hence cost-cutting will be a consumer priority. In this sense, foodservice is expected to be the most affected category.
