Trends reports explore sales, including promotion, in FMCG (for Food and Non-food) for seven major European countries on a quarterly basis.
Key findings:
- Confidence levels have decreased across Europe; however the German economy is still performing strongly.
- Purchasing power is under pressure due to increasing prices which are impacting volume sales. Spain is an exception.
- ‘Consumer Recession’: the return to a few basic principles: shoppers are buying what they need when they need it, buying less each time they shop and buying more often.
- After stabilising, trade promotion has started to increase again and could last, driven by the need to re-invigorate falling consumption levels.
- Private label is growing although national brands remain dominant.
