Meals and soups will register a fall in constant value sales and also a slight fall in volume sales over the forecast period. Value for money will drive value sales over the forecast period and players will have to offer competitive prices in order to compete with the affordable prices of meals and soups through foodservice outlets.
The overall outlook for soup is negative. The availability of fresh, affordable vegetables all-year-round will continue to encourage adults to prepare and consume home-made soup, rather than purchase packaged soup.
Pizza will be the strongest performer over the forecast period. Several brands of frozen pizza have recently launched such as Mr Cook from Pronaco, which also offer vegetarian options.

Meals and Soups
This is the aggregation of ready meals, pizza, food kits, prepared salads, and soup. Includes: These are products that have had recipe 'skills' added to them by the manufacturer, resulting in a high degree of readiness, completion and convenience. Food kits is an exception where typically the extent of preparation is much shorter than other meal products; includes meal kits where consumers are to put together pre-portioned ingredients and cook with the guidance of recipe cards. Ready meals are generally accepted to be complete meals that require few or no extra ingredients. However, in the case of shelf stable ready meals, the term also encompasses meal 'centres’; for food kits, they do require a degree of cooking and preparation. As such, some meals may require cooking (ready-to-cook); others may simply need reheating, prior to serving (ready-to-eat). Excludes: Any products sold unpackaged and/or by weight, including food sold from a retail deli counter.
