The overall category experienced a negative performance in 2009, during the time when consumers tightened their expenditure on luxury goods due to the severe economic situation. However, it demonstrated a rapid recovery in 2010, and value sales growth accelerated from 2010 to 2013. One of the major factors behind this growth was constant new product launches.

The transition from carton packaging to PET bottles, which Tine implemented in May 2011, facilitated a move of these products, from being...

Thus, further population growth is supporting an ongoing rise in sales in 2013. In comparison with frozen and chilled processed food, for example,...

The number of launches steadily decreased over the review period. Strong restrictions to imports and long delays of government approval for new products were two key factors behind the situation.

Such a lack of dynamism negatively impacted consumer interest and therefore demand. Under this...
