The premiumisation trend that was evident in cheese towards the end of the review period is expected to underpin a strong performance for the category over the forecast period as well. While cheese is regarded as an essential staple in most Macedonian households, the category also has a relatively indulgent image and this is conducive to the efforts of brands to position their products as premium options.
The growing importance of the health and wellness trend in North Macedonia and rising demand for convenience, especially among busy urban consumers, are expected to influence sales of cheese over the forecast period. In particular, packaged hard cheese is expected to gain further ground at the expense of unpackaged hard cheese.
While more traditional variants of cheese have the status of being essential foodstuffs in many Macedonian households, it is becoming increasingly common for consumers to demand a wider variety of cheese, including numerous interesting variants of soft cheese and hard cheese imported from other countries in Europe. In addition, consumer interest in plant-based is rising, with these products expected to begin presenting strong competition to regular dairy cheese as the influence of the health and wellness trend continues to build.
