TRENDS

In 2017, manufacturers catered for the ongoing and expanding vegan trend by offering plant-based spreads. In addition, consumers paid attention to flavour and healthier fat and salt contents while also turning their attention to environmental issues. For example, Unilever’s key Flora brand emphasised that the carbon footprint of its all-plant-oil-based spreads was lower than that of standard butter, thus appealing to consumers concerned about the environment. The company also took advantage of the ongoing and expanding vegan boom in Finland, stressing that its Flora spreads were made with 100% plant oils. It is also worth noting that free from lactose products also played a dominant role in product launches.

COMPETITIVE LANDSCAPE

Unilever Finland Oy remained the leading player with a 30% value share in 2017. Its popular Flora and Becel brands offer wide portfolios and see regular new product development as well as investment in advertising. Moreover, its position was also achieved through excellent nationwide distribution and prime shelf positioning.

PROSPECTS

Butter and margarine is set to post a value CAGR of 1% at constant 2017 prices over the forecast period to reach sales of EUR389 million in 2022. The constant value CAGR is expected to outperform the negative value CAGR seen in the review period, at constant 2017 prices. The heavy discounting among retailers is expected to slow down over the forecast period, enabling more positive results for value growth. Nonetheless, butter and margarine faces maturity in Finland, as well as increasing competition from oils over the forecast period.
