PROSPECTS

Cheese benefits from the introduction of new products

Alongside traditional cheeses, new cheeses and cheese types continued to be introduced in 2018 from both local and foreign manufacturers, which sought to cater for Finns’ rising interest in cheese. However, category maturity will likely weaken demand over the forecast period and so manufacturers will need to remain competitive by offering authentic, artisanal and health and wellness-positioned cheeses, for example which have a reduced salt content or are lactose-free.

Finns demand a full flavour but also healthier attributes

Demand for reduced salt cheese is growing, mainly thanks to efforts from the domestic dairy giant Valio, which has developed Valio ValSa, a reduced sodium milk salt innovation. In the autumn of 2017, Valio continued to launch ValSa versions of its most popular cheeses, with its new Valio Oltermanni ValSa containing 35% less salt but without sacrificing taste.

Cooking with cheese

Cheese eating habits continue to change in Finland. While previously cheese was mainly a topping for bread, it is now being eaten as a snack and increasingly being used in cooking.

COMPETITIVE LANDSCAPE

Opportunity to boost value sales by offering premium quality cheeses

While the dairy giant Valio continued to lead cheese in Finland in 2018, there remained room for growth for smaller players. As consumer interest in artisanal and authentic cheeses, including imported ones, is growing, smaller players can target profitable niches by offering premium quality cheeses.

Active new product development to cater for Finns’ increasing appetite for cheese

Offering more sophisticated products under private label ranges continued to be seen in 2018 when Lidl revamped its domestic Pohjolan Juustola cheese selection, for example offering lactose-free Kotimainen Port Salut. In a similar vein, under its more sophisticated Pirkka Parhaat private label line, Kesko launched Saariston Gouda, a mature hard cheese from the Åland Islands, emphasising its domestic origin via the Produce of Finland logo on its packaging.

Telling a story

Many manufacturers appealed to consumers by telling the story behind their cheeses. The domestic manufacturer Juustoportti, for instance, offered virtual tours of its local dairy farms so as to improve the transparency of its production, while also sharing the stories of its farmers on its Facebook page, with this strategy proving to be popular.
