20 Jul 2015 • by Natalie Aster

LONDON – In 2014, Australian people were encouraged by the media to explore new flavours and cuisines, with retailers, as a consequence, encouraged to extend their product portfolios. Novel fads and diets, including raw food, superfoods, sugar-less diets and paleo, among others, gave birth to new health-conscious consumers in Australia who prefer healthy, fresh foods over processed alternatives. Products made in Australia are also becoming more popular as the country is famous for growing its own fresh vegetables and fruits, and for being a producer of some of the globe’s best meat products. Nevertheless, high prices, which mirror high living standards and wages in Australia, are presently restraining the growth of the fresh food market.

Over the forecast period, total sales volume of fresh food in Australia is expected to increase at 1% CAGR, driven by surging consumer demand for fresh foods over processed and frozen food. The growth is expected in all categories, with nuts and fish & seafood areas poised for the strongest performance. This will be owing to promotion activities, with nuts, for example, being promoted with the daily consumption of vegetables and fruits and fish & seafood being promoted as a great alternative protein source. Still, sugar and sweeteners along with meat are expected to keep on experiencing decreasing demand owing to the fact that sugar consumption is associated with obesity whilst beef is linked with cancer and its harmful environmental impact. As a result, consumers will likely be seeking substitute products or tending to choose smaller volumes of top-quality premium products.
