Just Released: "Sweet and Savoury Snacks: Growth in the Face of Recession"

Fast Market Research recommends "Sweet and Savoury Snacks: Growth in the Face of Recession" from Euromonitor International, now available
 
March 21, 2010 - PRLog -- The core objective of this report is to examine the current state of the global sweet and savoury snacks industry, including any impact that continued global economic uncertainty is having on market performance.

In addition to providing a global overview of market performance, the report also analyses performance by product sector and geographic region, the state of the global competitive landscape, performance by retail distribution format, key trends and developments, new product developments, and global prospects and opportunities.

At the time of research - February to June 2009 - the global economy was initially forecast to grow at around 0.5% in 2009, with notable declines across North America, Western Europe and Eastern Europe. However, in July 2009, the IMF projected a significantly weaker performance, with the global economy now expected to contract by 1.4% over the course of the year. North America and Europe will continue to suffer, but now so will key markets in Latin America and Australasia.

The global sweet and savoury snacks market is examined in terms of forecast performance over the period 2009-2014, with a closer look at 2009-2010 specifically, with graphics and analysis identifying key areas of risk and opportunity, be it in geographic or product sector terms.

The report does not claim to be comprehensive, focusing on key industry categories, but rather seeks to offer high-level insight into key changes in the market at a time of manifest macroeconomic instability.
