Stakeholders in the Food & Beverages Sector of APEJ Strive for Extended Product Portfolio in a Bid to Uplift Sales

Asia Pacific excluding Japan (APEJ) remains one of the most prominent markets for food and beverage manufacturers globally. The region is home to the world’s leading food producers, importers, and exporters; and opportunities galore as it is home to some of the world’s most populous countries. Satisfying the growing and evolving needs of such a large consumer base will entail new solutions. It is estimated that by the end of 2050, the global population will reach nearly 10 billion, and a large percentage of this population will be based in APEJ. Policymakers are aware of the challenges and opportunities in APEJ’s food and beverage market, and there is a heightened pace of activity among players looking to enter or consolidate their position in this market.

Thinking of Asia Pacific excluding Japan as a homogenous demographic and concentrating only on volume sales can be a mistake, as consumers in many urban centers have the same set of demands and preferences as consumers in the U.S. and Europe. As disposable incomes increase, and urbanization leads to massive alternations in lifestyle, demand for processed and ready-to-cook food is increasing in many cities of APEJ. The global trends related to healthy, organic, and natural are also being witnessed in the APEJ’s food and beverage sector, and manufacturers with a diverse portfolio have an increasing likelihood of succeeding in this marketplace.

Fierce Competition Crops up Between North America and APEJ

The food and beverage industry in North America rests on a steady pitch, owing to the stability in consumer spending in the region. In the U.S., alterations in the Food Safety Modernization Act (FSMA) can mean that America’s food safety laws will focus more on prevention of food contamination, rather than responding to claims of food adulteration. Rising awareness on the role of food in health and well-being has made consumers in the U.S. and Canada more attentive towards the ingredients used by manufacturers. The growing preference of healthy foods has made

North American food and beverage companies develop new portfolios. Instead of spending resources and capital on manufacturing these new portfolios in-house, food and beverage companies seem more interested in acquiring smaller companies that have a strong reputation in specialty foods. The trend of acquiring smaller companies at lower cost is likely to continue in the near future. The food and beverage industry in North America is also adapting to new modes of delivery, benefitting the tissue towel market in return.

Global Retail & Consumer Goods Sector Outlook along with an Overview of the Tissue Towel Market

The retail and consumer goods sector has witnessed a mind-blowing shift in the last few years and this has largely to do with the extent of technology penetration into the sector at every touch point – both business and consumer centric. Retailers are going all out in their adoption of smart technologies to woo their customers in a bid to increase brand equity. Cloud, the Internet of Things (IoT), and in-memory computing have revolutionized the manner in which brands interact with customers. The overall global sector scenario – given the rich tapestry of technology underneath – looks quite promising owing to several key factors. The main contributor to the growth of the retail and consumer goods industry globally is a rise in consumer spending brought about by an increase in per capita disposable income and consequently more purchasing power in the hands of consumers.

With the consumer purchase journey having become increasingly complex and diversified, brands are devising new strategies to engage their customers with the right messaging delivered at the right time and through the right channel. In the current context, a few key trends are expected to redefine the retail and consumer goods sector in the near future:

The middle-class consumer will wield maximum spending power – almost triple – by the year 2030
Consumers will move beyond traditional stores and shop through connected mobile devices
3-D printing, retail robotics, wearables, Artificial Intelligence, Virtual Reality (VR), and Augmented Reality (AR) will proliferate the consumer goods industry
A mobile enabled omnichannel retail strategy will define sector investments in the coming years
