AbstractThis Key Note Market Report examines the UK market for cooking sauces and food seasonings, which grew by 15.1% between 2003 and 2007, to reach a value of £611m. The product range includes ambient, chilled and dried sauces and marinades, as well as salt, pepper, herbs and spices.
The cooking sauces sector has continued to gain from consumer demand for easy solutions to preparing meals, particularly as the range of sauces available is ever increasing. Suppliers have been proactive in extending their product ranges to encompass more popular as well as emerging cuisines, while smaller brands have also gained opportunities for wider distribution, owing to ongoing consumer demand for authentic products.
In acknowledgement of consumer interest in more natural and `wholesome' foods, suppliers and retailers are removing artificial colours and flavours from their product ranges, which, for some, has been part of a move upmarket. A focus on premium products — using more regional recipes, rather than standard generic formulations — has proved to be an important trend. The leading pasta sauce brand, Dolmio, has moved into the organic market, while Mars' organic brand, Seeds of Change, is being relaunched.
The food seasonings sector is strongly positioned to benefit from a revived interest in cooking from scratch, as some consumers are choosing to cook with basic products rather than to consume processed foods, such as ready meals. Sales of seasoning blends and mixes have gained from this trend, although this might have been at the expense of volume sales of individual products.
The cooking sauces and food seasonings market is supplied by a diverse range of companies, from multinationals to smaller groups distributing specific products and brands. Major companies involved in the market include: Mars, with its Dolmio, Uncle Ben's and Seeds of Change brands; Premier Foods, with the Sharwood's, Homepride and Loyd Grossman brands; and Unilever, with its Knorr Tonight and Bertolli ranges.
Around 30% of households buy cooking sauces, pasta sauces and pesto, and pour-over sauce products, with women and single households accounting for the highest levels of penetration.
Brand investment in this market is substantial, and this will ensure that products are developed in line with consumer demand. Values in the sector will continue to rise in the short to medium term, although this will largely be driven by inflation.
