PROSPECTS

The growth rate in 2018 is extraordinary, but the prospects also remain good

Early 2018 data indicated that supermarkets would overtake hypermarkets as the highest value retail channel in Finland. The strong growth in the channel in 2018 derived both from growth in traditional chains and the addition of a new chain.

Customers can now be better informed about their own purchasing patterns

A significant part of the population is concerned about what big corporations and authorities know about them. This is a crucial issue in a country like Finland, where different loyalty cards are popular, which help retailers keep track of what is bought and by whom.

Kesko trials smart shopping carts

Perhaps the most promising technological innovation launched in Kesko stores towards the end of the review period was Smartcart smart shopping carts. Already in use in close to 50 outlets, the cart allows the transfer of a shopping list from Kesko’s mobile app to the cart, helps navigate in the store, finds ingredients based on thousands of recipes, checks nutritional information and informs the user about special offers.

COMPETITIVE LANDSCAPE

S Group converts Stockmann’s food departments into a supermarket chain

S Group and Stockmann announced in mid-2017 that the former was acquiring the food departments of the latter’s handful of department stores in Finland. The takeover took place at the turn of the year, and in autumn 2018, S Group announced the rebranding of these outlets to Foodmarket Herkku.

S-Market remains Finland’s highest value retail chain

In 2018, S Group’s S-Market remained unchallenged as the biggest retail chain in Finland in retail sales terms. However, during the review period, K-supermarket managed to grow somewhat better than S-Market.

The environment is in focus

As a channel visited frequently by consumers, supermarkets is not immune to wider societal trends. Food waste has become a growing issue for concerned consumers and retailers alike.
