The forecast period is expected to see butter and spreads register merely moderate sales growth in volume and value terms as high unit price growth and pressure on household incomes, both caused by high inflation, are set to put pressure on demand. Rising manufacturing costs determined by the high price of energy, fuel and various raw materials are the main reason for price inflation in the category and this is likely to discourage consumers from spending money on the butter and spreads at a time when purchasing power is falling due to increases in wages and salaries not keeping pace with the rising cost of utilities and food.
Rising consumer concern over the negative health implications of fatty food in general and, in particular, products that contain trans fats is expected to put pressure on demand for margarine and spreads over the forecast period. Towards the end of the review period, the spotlight fell on the role played by trans fatty acids in contributing to a variety of long-term health issues, including cardiovascular disease, with trans fats increasingly considered as inherently harmful for human health.
The popularity of butter is expected to remain high among the population of Romania during the forecast period and this is largely linked to the long tradition of butter consumption in the country and high domestic production volumes. Indeed, the supply of butter in Romania is dominated by international players with domestic operations, many of which have over time acquired local dairy producers and their domestic brands.
