Analysis of consumer attitudes and buying behaviour in the beer and wine sector |
As part of an ongoing programme of research and contribution to consumer insight in the food and beverage industry, Deloitte have launched a summary of the findings from their third annual beer and wine survey.
Times are changing. With the introduction of the smoking ban in England & Wales, lack of significant football games and poor weather, retailers, pub operators and suppliers alike are under significant pressure to increase sales in 2008.
What the consumers told Deloitte:
• Almost two-thirds were most likely to consume their preferred drink at home or at a friend's house
• For the first time price has overtaken brand as the key consideration when purchasing beer or wine
• Consumers pay less attention to the price of each litre they buy and more to the overall price
What the trolleys told Deloitte:
• Stella Artois remains the most popular brand for consumers who buy cases of beer
• For those who bought cases of beer, the average purchase was 1.8 cases compared to 1.3 in 2006
