Summary

Introduction

Health and convenience are of increasing importance in defining food and drink needs. However, consumers are typically forced to make a trade-off with eating and drinking healthily to facilitate convenience needs, and vice versa. This report, in highlighting how the two trends co-exist, offers a complete review of how to more effectively satisfy unmet needs for health on-the-go.

Scope

  • A complete review of European and US consumers' health on-the-go habits with market size and occasion based data segmented by daypart and country.
  • Explores in detail the convenience and health mega-trends, with specific focus on how the two trends co-exist and the opportunities this creates.
  • Health need state market analysis with the value of healthy eating and drinking on-the-go broken down by need state.
  • Detailed Action Points pinpointing how to effectively target the growing number and value of health on-the-go occasions

Highlights

The number of healthy on-the-go eating occasions in Europe and the US combined is set to increase from 73.2 billion occasions in 2003 to 84.4 billion occasions in 2008. The growth in healthy drinking is even higher with the number of healthy on-the-go drinking occasions rising to 264 billion occasions in 2008, up from 212 billion occasions in 2003.

Rising time in transit, mealtime fragmentation and informality and changing work patterns all mean that consuming on-the-go will account for a higher proportion of consumption occasions in the future. Consumers are also increasingly health conscious with 80% of US and European consumers feeling that it is important to improve health through diet.

It is important that marketers demonstrate a long-term commitment to healthy eating and drinking by helping consumers make informed, healthier food and drink choices. Extending brands with already established health credentials is one tactic that can be utilized to help cement the trust of consumers.
