Brehm Prepared By: Julie Vasquez-Nicholson Report Highlights: In the UK the retail grocery industry is concentrated with eighty-two percent market share in the hands of just five supermarket chains. The remainder is scattered over hundreds of outlets. This report overviews the characteristics of UK retail outlets and how best to place U.S. products in the UK market. Post: London Executive Summary: SECTION I. MARKET SUMMARY Overview Over the last 12 months, the UK food and drink industry has faced challenging trading conditions as shoppers, manufacturers and retailers have been impacted by a range of factors. Increased pressure on household budgets, unemployment, the banking crisis, and the availability of credit continues to impact consumer spending. Despite these challenges, the UK food and grocery market remains robust. While not recession proof, food and grocery is more resilient to the current downturn in the economic market than other sectors. The UK grocery market was worth £150.8 billion ($241.3 billion) for calendar year 2010. This is an increase of 3.1 percent over 2009. Groceries account for 12.8 percent of total household spending in the UK, making it the third largest area of expenditure, following housing and transport. Food and grocery expenditures account for 53p in every £1.00 of retail spending (excluding restaurants). 21p in every £1.00 spent on food and grocery is spent in convenience stores.
