The Private Label Food and Drink Consumer in the United States 2010
Mintel, Dec 2010, Pages: 174
Private label food and drink products have garnered more attention in the media, as well as the business community, in recent years in part because of the impressive growth across multiple categories. Consumers are buying private label food and drink products in greater numbers, typically because these products represent better value irrespective of the price point at which the consumer is buying.
While price is an important driver of private label performance, it is also evident that the quality of the products have improved in recent years, and consumers increasingly recognize that “store brands” are often of equal, or even superior quality, to comparable nationally branded products. Moreover, many retailers of private label products have developed elegant and intriguing packaging that has helped to position their products as premium, and perhaps alleviate—or even eliminate— the stigma associated with “generic” products.
