The New Consumerism sees today’s consumers reassessing their priorities and asking themselves what they truly value: Why accumulate more belongings when I could be out experiencing life? Why pay for space I don’t use? This report looks at five distinct aspects of the New Consumerism as it plays out in packaged food and evaluates its impact on food forms: how food is marketed and consumed and where it is bought and stored featuring examples from packaging, ingredients, services and appliances.

Polarisation becomes the new norm in where, for what and how we shop

The longevity of the financial crisis and the bumpy road to recovery has contributed to a fundamental shift in attitudes. Consequently shoppers who have traded down in the past are unlikely to return to their old ways if they have found the quality of replacement products to be comparable or acceptable, leading to increased price polarisation at retail and product level.

Technology is changing where, what and how we eat

Technology is becoming increasingly integrated into the world of food. With an average household having more than two smartphones, consumers’ appliances, shopping patterns and packaging preferences are moving to the digital space urging packaged food companies and retailers to have a mobile first strategy.

Urbanisation calls for smaller living spaces and more versatile food forms

Whether through choice or necessity, consumers’ living spaces are becoming smaller. This trend has far-reaching impact across all sectors, most immediately household goods such as kitchen appliances and fridges, but also packaged food. A lack of space can impact the frequency of shopping trips, as well as preferences in terms of packaging materials and size for food.

The single-person household will determine the future growth of food

Growth in single-person households worldwide over 2016-2030 will be around 32%, faster than any other household type. This will further accentuate existing demand for small appliances such as coffee machines and smoothie makers, miniaturised foods and snacking products.

As food becomes an experience the line between retail and food service is blurring

The experience trend is manifesting itself in various forms in the food industry, including the value placed on the dine-in experience, increased demand for global cuisines and unique shopping spaces, authentic recipe-based cooking and sharing packs.
