CHOCOLATE CONFECTIONERY

Trends

Uruguayan consumers have been able to absorb price increases in all chocolate confectionery categories and their continuing demand produced positive, even if very small, volume growth in 2017.

Competitive Landscape

Sebamar continued leading chocolate confectionery value sales with a 22% value share in 2017. Its sales are mainly derived from its Brazilian brand Garoto. Van Dam, with Arcor products, ranked second with a 21% value share. The two Mondelez companies operating in chocolate confectionery, Mondelez Uruguay and CAS Uruguay held a combined 22% value share in 2017.

Prospects

The premiumisation phase seen during the review period is likely to lose vigour as growth of the Uruguayan economy slows down during the forecast period. Consumers who grew accustomed to increasing salaries in real terms in the last decade will be more cautious in their future spending and many may shy away from purchasing the more expensive options in chocolate confectionery.

GUM

Trends

Increases in average unit prices above inflation rate helped boost value sales in 2017. Volume growth saw a another decrease in sales, mainly because of a lack of products from CAS Uruguay, but the situation was beginning to recover and thus the smaller decline in 2017 was an improvement over the previous year’s volume decline.

Competitive Landscape

CAS Uruguay continued to dominate sales of gum with a 60% value share in 2017. This company from the Mondelez International group maintained a value share above 70% until 2013, leading sales with Bubbaloo in bubble gum, Beldent in sugar-free gum and Adams in sugarised gum. Van Dam remained in second place with sales of Top Line and Arcor gum, holding a 28% value share overall. Durulte with Orbit had negligible sales in 2017 and several players that have appeared since 2013 together accounted for the remaining 12%.

Prospects

Gum value sales are expected to post a stagnant CAGR at 2017 constant prices over the forecast period. This will be quite an improvement over the -7% constant value CAGR seen over the review period. The good performance of chewing gum over bubble gum will continue helping to boost total sales of gum products.

SUGAR CONFECTIONERY

Trends

The trend to consume healthier products continues having a negative impact on sugar confectionery as consumers trying to switch to sugar-free confectionery do not find enough products to choose from and many are reducing the volume of their purchases or abandoning sugar confectionery altogether. The new health regulations regarding which products can be sold in school cafeterias and at retailers located near schools also are having a negative impact on volume sales, as children are one of the main target groups for sugar confectionery.

Competitive Landscape

Van Dam with Arcor brands led sugar confectionery with a 32% value share in 2017. Van Dam has the widest portfolio within the category and its products, with few exceptions, continue to be conveniently priced, assuring a steady flow of volume sales in a slowly growing environment. There are several players with value shares between 2% and 7% struggling to secure the second position, which was captured in 2017 by Penino y Corona with a 7% value share.

Prospects

The trend of consuming sugar-free and healthier products is foreseen to get stronger during the forecast period. However, in the case of sugar confectionery, if companies do not widen their current sugar-free portfolios with attractive products the trend could continue backfiring as health-conscious consumers will likely buy less confectionery if they do not find products that suit what they search for amongst the available sugar-free options.
