There are two main types of shoppers in South Africa – one that can afford to buy in bulk to save money, and another that buys smaller pack sizes because that is all they can afford. Regardless of their shopping preference, all consumers are price-conscious and look for ways to save money.
Given that many consumers are cash-strapped, now more than ever before, they are likely to seek out more affordable alternatives to the mainstream sugar confectionery products available. Cheap imported sugar confectionery products provide a suitable alternative due to their lower price point.
In January 2023, the South African government, in line with global trends, gazetted a draft of Regulations Relating to the Labelling and Advertising of Foodstuffs, which is open for public comment. The proposed changes in the draft regulation aim to ensure greater transparency, protect consumers against misleading claims, and promote healthier dietary choices.
