Trends & innovations in the supermarket of 2011
We have identified several trends in the market that many grocery retailers in the US have responded to, resulting in their continued growth and staying power:
Quality, Fresh, Health (fresh produce, broad selection) – 66% of shoppers say they’re seeking ways to “improve their health and wellness through the foods and beverages they consume”
Social Responsibility & Community Involvement (community involvement, locally grown, green, employee retention, acknowledgement of local ethnic groups) – 45% of shoppers purchase locally grown products 1-3 times a month
Convenience (smaller store formats, intelligent merchandising, “ready-to-eat” solutions)
Value (balancing with quality, channel blurring) – 35% of shoppers cite cost as a major obstacle to healthy eating
Loyalty and Rewards (refined private label offerings, online promotions, loyalty programs) – shoppers indicate they will spend the same or more on private label in 2011
Digital Communication (in-store signage, flyers, coupons) – in 2010, digital coupon usage increased by 59%
The following are some key examples of innovation that respond to these trends.
