PROSPECTS

The rapidly increasing number of single-person households boosts supermarkets

As the number of single-person households in South Korea rapidly rose, supermarkets recorded positive sales growth in 2017. Considering that hypermarkets and warehouses clubs offer larger packs at lower prices, single-person households prefer to buy small packs from supermarkets or convenience stores.

Online shopping is already a big trend in supermarkets

Many South Koreans already purchase many items through online shopping centres, especially through their mobile devices. Owing to the greater number of customers in online channels, supermarkets are actively adopting the internet retailing channel to survive.

Intense channel competition is expected during the forecast period

Strong competition in supermarkets is anticipated during the forecast period. Individual companies in the channel will need to compete with the channel’s current rivals, such as convenience stores, hypermarkets and drugstores/parapharmacies, as well as with other players’ online channels, in the forecast period.

COMPETITIVE LANDSCAPE

Several big-name supermarket brands lead sales

Supermarkets is occupied by several big-name brands such as Lotte Super, Homeplus Express, GS Supermarket and E-Mart Everyday. As they have large retailing companies as national brand owners, they had enough resources and staff to operate their outlets and run marketing activities efficiently in 2017.

Online channels become more important for supermarkets

Like other channels in grocery retailers, online channels will play a significant role even for supermarkets during the forecast period. Supermarkets will actively promote their fresh foods and ingredients through online channels and promote their fast delivery and distribution system.

Supermarkets is expected to post sales growth
