Abstract
About this report
The spreads market is valued at £590 million in 2008 and is almost evenly split between sweet and savoury products. Sales of honey and chocolate/nut spreads have been particularly buoyant of late in sweet spreads, while in savoury spreads, chilled spreadables, such as sandwich fillers and pates, account for the bulk of sales.
This report assesses the different opportunities that can arise from targeting different occasions, such as snacking or cooking, as well as consumers’ attitudes towards spreads and whether or not they differ depending on the type of spreads.Mintel last examined the Sweet Spreads market in April 2007 and the Savoury Spreads market in March 2001.
