Introduction and Landscape

Why was the report written?
Marketers in the Syrups & Spreads market face a major challenge. Understanding market size and segmentation is valuable, but the key to effective targeting is knowing just how valuable specific consumer groups are, and being able to quantify the impact of consumer trends. This data report solves these problems by providing survey-based data on consumer trends and consumer groups, and market data that shows the exact size of consumer groups, how much of the Syrups & Spreads market they account for, and which consumer trends drive their behavior.

What is the current market landscape and what is changing?
As India's population booms and consumers become increasingly affluent, being able to capitalize early on the new emerging consumer behaviors will be fundamental to future growth. This makes early identification of the consumer groups and trends driving market behavior essential, particularly given the habitual consumption patterns of Syrups & Spreads.

What are the key drivers behind recent market changes?
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.

What makes this report unique and essential to read?
The data provided is unique in the market as it tracks consumer behavior through to its actual value impact on a product market. This provides readers with a unique data analysis of the market, allowing marketing tactics and strategy to be updated in line with the very latest consumer behaviors.

Key Features and Benefits

Consumer data, based upon proprietary surveys and then consumer group tracking and modeling for the following specific categories: Jams, Jellies & Preserves, Savory Spreads, Sweet Spreads, and Syrups.

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.

Key Market Issues

Significant "attitude-behavior" gaps exist between the share of consumers citing that a trend affects their consumption and the actual share of the market value these trends influence. These gaps are greater in the Syrups, Savory Spreads, and Sweet Spreads product categories, and lower but still significant in the Jams, Jellies &Preserves product category. This is because consumers don't always act on these trends – the result is that overall trend influence is limited, but has the potential to grow.

Consumption segmentation analysis of the Syrups and Spreads market by the amount of time people have to spare reveals that Time Rich people account for a larger value share of the market (41%) than people who are Time Poor (29%). This highlights the importance of the youngest and oldest consumers, who have plenty of free time as a result of short working days, long holidays, or retirement.

The Better Off wealth group in India accounts for 50% of the Jams, Jellies & Preserves market by value, despite comprising only 44% of the population. This highlights the strong potential for premium and value-added products in what is the most valuable Syrups& Spreads market in India.

Key Highlights

More females consume Sweet Spreads than males and they tend to do so more often. Only 36% of females are Non-users of these products, compared to 46% of males. Furthermore, 11% of females are Heavy frequency consumers compared to9% of males, and 20% of females are Medium frequency users compared to 18% of males. This highlights the potential to offer more specifically targeted Syrups & Spreads products to females in India.

While the leading brand of Savory Spreads accounts for a third of the market by volume, the rest of the market is highly fragmented. As such, these others brands may be at risk from new brands entering the market, and may also be extremely vulnerable to private labels.

Kids & Babies account for a quarter of the Indian Syrups & Spreads market by value. While this is by far the largest share of the market, other age groups also record significant consumption and should not be ignored.
