Introduction
Consumers, faced with diverse demands on their time, are finding that the traditional concept of the midday meal is being eroded, often replaced with abbreviated on-the-go occasions or skipped altogether. This poses distinct challenges for packaged goods players, making it essential to track and understand the shifting trends and underlying causes of this increasingly fragmented behavior.
Scope
*Comprehensive analysis of trends in consumer behavior and the impact of these on lunch occasions in Europe, the US, Brazil and Asia-Pacific
*In-depth quantitative and qualitative analysis of lunch occasions to reveal the most profitable consumer groups and occasion types for targeting
*Detailed action points offering practical strategies based on the trends and insights analyzed in the report
*Covers France, Germany, Italy, Netherlands, Spain, Sweden, UK, US, Australia, New Zealand, Japan, South Korea, China, India, Brazil and Russia
Highlights
Consumers are showing a growing propensity to sacrifice lunch as a regular meal. The number of lunches skipped per person is rising in all the tracked countries, with forecasts predicting this to continue through 2012. The number of lunches skipped by the average US consumer (66.6 lunches in 2007) is almost three times the European average (24.0).
The US has the lowest number of lunches consumed at home. This is a week round phenomenon, as US consumers have a high propensity for eating out at the weekend. Convenience, erosion of traditional meal preparation skills, and the breadth of third place options fuel this.
Lunch is very important in the context of the working day. Its content, as well as whether it is consumed, has an impact on consumers' health and wellness, influencing afternoon productivity and concentration. Skipping has been connected to falls in productivity, but over-eating can also be detrimental to afternoon function.
Reasons to Purchase
*Learn why lunch is prone to skipping, where and in what form they are being consumed, and what consumer lunch priorities should be actively targeted
*Use the latest evidence based insights to launch and reposition products, ensuring they are successfully aligned with consumers' lunch behavior
*Access a blend of quantitative and qualitative data illustrating consumer attitudes, actual behavior and best-practice marketing across the globe
