Analyst Opinion

The Food market in EAEU is facing subdued growth due to various factors such as increasing consumer preference for organic and healthy food products, rising competition from local and international players, and changing consumer trends towards convenience and on-the-go food options. Despite the slow growth, the market is expected to experience significant growth in the coming years, driven by the increasing demand for dairy products, meat, and convenience food. This growth can also be attributed to the rising health awareness among consumers and the convenience offered by online food services. Efforts by governments to promote domestic production and reduce import dependency are also expected to impact the market positively.

Customer preferences:
Consumers in the EAEU region are increasingly prioritizing convenient and healthy food options, leading to a rise in demand for organic and natural products. This trend is driven by a growing awareness of the benefits of a healthy diet and a desire for sustainable and ethical food choices. Additionally, the popularity of online shopping and food delivery services has made it easier for consumers to access a wider range of healthy products. This shift towards healthier and more convenient food options is expected to continue, with consumers valuing both the health benefits and convenience of these products.
