 Some key insights include:
  • Consumers’ uptake of products and the influence of consumer trends are fundamental causes of change in markets – making knowing what these trends are and the extent of their influence crucial. The survey-based data provided in this report examines over 20 consumer trends that affect the market and examines the share of consumption across 26 consumer groups. This data provides a detailed insight into exactly who the consumer is and just how much impact the latest consumer trends are having.
  • Consumer segment analysis reveals that Brazil’s Better Off income group accounts for nearly one-third of the total soft drinks market in value terms. Rising wage levels and new job opportunities created by Brazil’s increasing integration with the global economy has increased both the size and spending power of middle income groups in the country.
  • Consumption frequency analysis reveals that over half of Brazilian Early Young Adults don’t consume Concentrates, a strong reduction from the next youngest age group, Tweens & Early Teens, where only 25% of consumers are non-users. Consequently, marketing planners will need to design their campaigns for Soft Drink Concentrates to account for this decline in consumption.
  • Consumption frequency analysis reveals that non-users of Ready to Drink Tea & Coffee account for between 60%-85% of consumers among the different age categories in Brazil. This low penetration means that suppliers need to carefully target those that do consume ready to Drink Tea & Coffee or take action to increase the number of consumers.
  • Market value analysis reveals that Sparkling Soft Drinks, Juices, and Bottled Water together account for more than 80% of the total market by value in Brazil. Ready to Drink Tea & Coffee is the smallest soft drinks segment.
  • Brand analysis reveals that private labels have more than25% penetration in the Smoothies market in Brazil compared to less than 2% penetration in Sparkling Soft Drinks, where private labels compete against strong international brands such as Coca-Cola and Pepsi.
  • Consumer survey results suggest the fast pace of modern life and consumers’ wish to express individuality and personality are key determinants for the consumption of soft drinks in Brazil.
