Executive summary

Continuing on the growth path

Sales increased in current value terms for the fifth consecutive year, mostly as a result of higher disposable income that allowed consumers to choose what they want to buy without focusing on the price tag. In 2008, consumers put precedence on benefits such as a lack of trans fats or presence of functional ingredients over cost, and chose to treat themselves with the products and brands they like.

Health awareness reaching the sky

Consumers are more health aware than ever before, as they are constantly bombarded with advertising about the benefits of eating and drinking products with added benefits, such as iron and vitamins, with Danone and Mastellone being the manufacturers leading the trend. This has driven a trend towards healthier eating and drinking, which is positively impacting the market, as consumers focus more on the health features added by the products, rather than their price.

Premium brands increase their share

Premium brands, such as Unilever’s Knorr, Danone’s Actimel and Mastellone’s La Serenísima reached all time highs, as consumers had higher disposable income and were interested in added benefits, such as gourmet flavours, for example, mushroom soup and functional benefits, such as milk with fibres and added iron. Premium brands, such as Nestlé’s Frigor and PepsiCo’s Lays also increased their share by contributing to “deseasonalised” consumption by means of product launches and advertising.

Supermarkets and hypermarkets gain share

Supermarkets and hypermarkets gained share in 2008, as the consumer became increasingly time strapped and looked for stores which contributed to save their time. Supermarkets and hypermarkets save consumers’ time, as they allowed the opportunity to make all weekly and monthly purchases in one place. Furthermore, consumers realized that supermarkets and hypermarkets also had lower prices and therefore were increasingly appealing to them.

A slow down in growth

Euromonitor International expects sales growth to slow down for a variety of reasons. The two most important are the fact that the packaged food market has grown significantly over the review period and reached record high volumes, which make it increasingly difficult to maintain such high rates of growth. The other reason for the slow down is that the overall economic performance will slow down in the future. High inflation in local currency is eroding the competitiveness of the Argentine economy, as the Peso/US$ exchange rate is almost fixed and thus the Argentinean domestic cost (labour, logistics) in US dollars is also increasing. This slow down in the economy will make disposable income increase at a slower pace, impacting the packaged food market with a deceleration of sales growth.
