What is the current market landscape and what is changing?
As consumer confidence increases proportionally to economic recovery, consumer trends will be directly affected. Since the global financial crisis of 2008–2009 the organized retail market has been characterized by an increased amount of discount and own-brand products. The weak UK economy has forced consumers to evaluate and possibly alter their consumption patterns of many products, including Pasta & Noodles.
