Summary
The European food market is constantly evolving with new trends influencing consumer eating habits creating many different issues for manufacturers aiming to capitalize on the food market. Some of the most important trends in the region include clear labeling, meat alternatives, exotic and health foods and increased snacking.
Key Findings
Germany, France, Russia and the UK are among the largest food markets in volume and value terms among the countries analyzed. This can be attributed to population size, high income and high consumption rates.
Growing recognition of meat alternatives for non-vegetarians and vegans, snacking and increasing popularity of exotic and health foods are changing the food landscape in the region.
The food market in the region is becoming far more diverse and fragmented than in previous years due to globalization, immigration and dietary restrictions.
