While soup remains a rather uneventful category dominated by dehydrated soup, there has been a trend for pack changes. This development includes noticeable pack size reductions, especially for Maggi (Nestlé Adriatik Makedonija) products.
Given the strength of the health and wellness trend in Macedonia, many leading producers of soup are focusing on adding healthier ingredients to their products to appeal to more health-conscious consumers. Therefore, more and more soups are labelled as “vegetarian”, “low salt and low sugar”, “low saturated acids”, or “without artificial colours”.
There are a limited number of competitively-priced instant soup brands in Macedonia. Thus, instant soup struggles to gain greater significance due to overpricing.
Podravka is expected to remain the leader in soup in retail value share terms in 2021. The company has invested in improvements to its distribution network and nationwide outreach.
Over the forecast period, soup is set to witness new brand entries, including new competitively-priced product launches within shelf stable soup and chilled soup. However, sales of shelf stable soup and chilled soup are likely to remain insignificant or negligible over the forecast period.
While projected to see declines in retail volume and value (constant 2021 prices) sales, dehydrated soup is set to remain the dominant format in the forecast period. Instant soup is the only offer type with significant sales in the country.
