CHOCOLATE CONFECTIONERY IN SINGAPORE

Trends

Chocolate confectionery’s 5% current value growth in 2017 was slightly stronger than the review period current value CAGR of 5%. Novelties continued to attract consumers, with cross-over in categories as an emerging trend. For instance, Magnum, a renowned ice cream brand, launched a chocolate bar during October 2016, with Singapore being the first Asian country where it appeared. The continued popularity of boxed assortments for gifting and controlled portion intake was another key contributor to overall chocolate confectionery performance in 2017.

Competitive Landscape

Ferrero recorded the strongest increase in value share to reach 22%, strengthening its leadership in chocolate confectionery during 2017. Its strong portfolio of brands including Ferrero Rocher, Kinder Bueno and Kinder Joy, which gained strong consumer awareness and interest over the review period, was a key contributor to this. Furthermore, Ferrero Rocher remained a favourite for gifting and consumption during festive seasons due to its gold-colour packaging that signifies auspiciousness in Singapore. The company’s favourability was also reinforced by the player’s investments in marketing campaigns during the year.

Prospects

Chocolate confectionery is expected to register a value CAGR of 5% at constant 2017 prices and a retail volume CAGR of 3% over the forecast period, both being an improvement over their respective review period CAGRs although the value growth will be more significant. Consumers’ rising health consciousness will be a key limitation to significant chocolate confectionery performance due to some reduction in consumption, be it in form of less frequency or going for smaller pack sizes. Consumers’ urge for controlled-portion intake and the consequent demand for small pack sizes, which usually command a higher unit price, will drive the constant value growth.

GUM IN SINGAPORE

Trends

Gum witnessed a stronger current value decline in 2017 than in 2016, attributed to restricted access to gum in Singapore. According to The Regulation of Imports and Exports Act, importing of chewing gum except that with therapeutic value is prohibited. The only exception for gum with therapeutic value is due to a concession made under the 2004 US-Singapore Free Trade Agreement. Consequently, sugar-free chewing gum containing xylitol is the only type available in Singapore.

Competitive Landscape

Mars Foods monopolised gum in 2017, in view of the withdrawal of Mentos toward the end of the review period. Its Orbit brand, which has already garnered widespread consumer awareness, thus remained the only choice for consumers.

Prospects

Gum is expected to continue to fall in value over the forecast period, posting a CAGR of -11% at constant 2017 compared to the -6% constant value CAGR seen over the review period. The restrictions imposed on the sales avenues of gum are unlikely to improve over the forecast period, seeing distribution limited to just a few pharmacies. The troublesome process of having to produce identification when purchasing gum will further deter the category’s performance over the forecast period.

SUGAR CONFECTIONERY IN SINGAPORE

Trends

Sugar confectionery current value growth in 2017 was in line with that seen in 2016 but slower than the current value CAGR of 3% registered over the review period. The category witnessed minimal product innovations during the year, with growth mainly sustained by consumers’ conventional consumption trends, for instance reliance on mints to refresh their breath. Despite this, medicated confectionery brands continued to innovate in terms of packaging, flavour and format, for instance with Halls XS Honey Lemon, a new flavour launched in April 2017 to reinforce its Halls XS variant’s presence in Singapore.

Competitive Landscape

Mars Foods witnessed the strongest growth in value share to reach 11%, thereby strengthening its leadership in sugar confectionery during 2017. This was owing to the strong performance of its Eclipse brand in power mints, where it offered a wide variety of flavours to cater to consumers’ palates.

Prospects

Sugar confectionery is expected to record stable if slightly lower constant value growth over the forecast period as compared to the value CAGR of 3% at constant 2017 prices posted over the forecast period. Consumers’ reliance on power mints to refresh their breath amidst their high image consciousness will be the key contributor to continued growth. Power mints is expected to witness the strongest constant value growth of 4% within sugar confectionery over the forecast period, higher than the CAGR for sugar confectionery overall.
