2026 Developments
Snacks in Kazakhstan continue to show strong value growth, supported by inflationary pressures and evolving shopper behaviour. Despite rising costs linked to higher VAT and cocoa prices, consumer spending on food remains resilient, while ongoing product and channel innovation helps sustain demand. The landscape is increasingly shaped by a shift towards affordability, particularly in sweet biscuits, snack bars and fruit snacks, while chocolate confectionery faces more subdued volume growth as shoppers seek lower-cost alternatives. In response, leading companies are prioritising cost efficiency, digital engagement and rapid portfolio adaptation, while expanding their presence in supermarkets and e-commerce to capture changing consumption occasions. Success in this environment depends on balancing value-led pricing with agile innovation and targeted digital marketing to meet evolving consumer needs and strengthen competitive positioning.
