Detailed consumer segmentation covering over 26 consumer groups, 20 consumer trends, and consumption frequency for each product category.

Consumer penetration for brands and private labels, based upon the original survey and then subsequent consumer tracking and modeling.

Unique organized retailer choice data at the product category level, based upon the original survey and then subsequent consumer tracking and modeling.

Key Market Issues

The consumption of Dried Pasta is highest among Pre-Mid-Lifers, Mid-Lifers, and Older Consumers. Heavy consumption is prevalent, accounting for over half of each age group. However, approximately 15% of each age group are Medium frequency consumers and approximately 20% are Light frequency consumers, highlighting a number of consumers that marketers should target to increase the value and volume size of the category.

The Pasta and Noodles market in Brazil is dominated by the Dried Noodles and Chilled Pasta categories, which together constitute 51% of the overall market by value. Ambient Noodles is the least valuable category, with a market share of 6%.

Females consume more Ambient Noodles than males. While 31% of females record Heavy frequency consumption, 26% of males eat Ambient Noodles as often. Furthermore, while 21% of each gender record Medium frequency consumption, the proportion of females recording Light frequency consumption also outnumbers the proportion of males. Marketers should keep this gender gap in mind when designing products and campaigns for the Ambient Noodles market.

Key Highlights

Kids and Babies consume the most Pasta and Noodles, with an 18% value share of the market. However, this is equal to their share of the population. No age group consumes Pasta and Noodles disproportionately to its size, indicating that marketers need to introduce differentiated products aimed at different demographics in order to maximize their revenues.

Not only do a large proportion of Brazilian consumers, in certain categories at least, highlight that the Busy Lives and Better Value for Money trends have an influence on their consumption, this translates into a significant proportion of actual value being directly influenced as well. Consumers are therefore acting on these trends enough to ensure that targeting them, in the right categories, is essential to success.

There is a significant difference in private label penetration in the Chilled Pasta and Noodles categories. While 34% of the volume of Chilled Noodles products distributed is private label, the same is also true for only 4% of Chilled Pasta products. Retailers may increase their investment in their Chilled Pasta private labels in order to grow their market share to the levels achieved in Chilled Noodles.

.The top three retailers of organized retail in Brazil dominate the Pasta and Noodles market with a combined volume share of 50%. Beyond this the market is highly fragmented.
