2012 Snack Food in the U.S.
Report description
WHAT GOES BETTER WITH BEVERAGES THAN SNACKS?
Through our BMC Information Services Group, Beverage Marketing explores trends in an area that often shares usage occasions as well as certain challenges with beverages: snack foods. This report covers all segments of the diverse packaged snack food industry, from salty to sweet and everything in between, examining market trends and recent industry developments. It also profiles leading companies, including those also involved with beverages, such as PepsiCo and Kraft, as well as food giants like ConAgra and General Mills and snack food-centric entities like Herr Foods and Hostess Brands. Other chapters address pricing, advertising and demographics. The report also contains Beverage Marketing's exclusive five-year projections.
Report extract:
The U.S. snack food industry in the first dozen years of the twenty-first century saw several changes in corporate structures as a result of mergers and aquistions, bankruptcies or other types of restructurings.
- In 2008, for instance, Archway entered bankruptcy proceeding and the cookie concern ended up being acquired by Lance, Inc.
- Two years later, Lance merged with Snyder's of Hanover to form Snyder's-Lance.
- P&G thought it had worked out a way to leave the snack food business by selling its Pringles brand to Diamond Foods (which had earlier purchahsed other brands, such as Kettle). Bookkeeping issues scuttled the deal, and P&G sold its potato chip trademark to Kellog in 2012.
- Also in 2012, Hostess Brands entered Chapter 11 again after having done so just few years earlier and Kraft announced the name - Mondelez - it planned to use for its snack food business once it separted it from its other food operations, as it previously announced that it intended to do.
On the flavor front, the growing U.S. Hispanic population has spurred new products introductions in many segments.
- Salsa is by no means the only area where so-called ethnic and specifically Hispanic demographic shifts have influenced flavor developments.
- PepsiCo's Frito-Lay recently launched versions of Doritos and Ruffles flavored with Tapatio brand hot sauce, for instance.
- In early 2011, ConAgra added a Hot & Spicy flavor to the David Seeds line.
