Analyst Opinion

Belgium, a country known for its delicious waffles and chocolates, has also seen a surge in the Grocery Delivery market in recent years.

Customer preferences:
As in many other countries, the COVID-19 pandemic has accelerated the demand for online grocery shopping. Belgian consumers have become increasingly interested in the convenience and safety of having their groceries delivered to their doorstep. Additionally, the busy lifestyle of many Belgians has also contributed to the growth of the Grocery Delivery market as they seek to save time by avoiding trips to the supermarket.

Trends in the market:
The Grocery Delivery market in Belgium has seen a rise in the number of players in the market, ranging from traditional supermarkets to newer online-only players. This has led to increased competition and innovation, with companies investing in technology to improve their delivery services. Many companies have also expanded their product offerings to include fresh produce, meal kits, and specialty products to cater to the diverse needs of Belgian consumers.

Local special circumstances:
Belgium is a small country with a high population density, which presents both opportunities and challenges for the Grocery Delivery market. On the one hand, this means that there is a large customer base in a relatively small area, making it easier for companies to reach a large number of consumers. On the other hand, the high population density also means that there is limited space for storage and logistics, which can make it challenging for companies to ensure timely and efficient delivery.

Underlying macroeconomic factors:
Belgium has a strong economy and a high level of disposable income, which makes it an attractive market for companies in the Grocery Delivery sector. However, the country also has a highly fragmented retail market, with many small independent retailers competing with larger supermarket chains. This can make it challenging for companies to establish a strong foothold in the market and compete effectively.In conclusion, the Grocery Delivery market in Belgium is growing rapidly, driven by changing customer preferences and the need for convenience and safety in the wake of the COVID-19 pandemic. The market is highly competitive, with many players vying for a share of the market. Companies that can innovate and provide high-quality delivery services are likely to succeed in this dynamic and challenging market.

Methodology

Data coverage:

The data encompasses B2C enterprises. Figures are based on Gross Merchandise Value (GMV) and represent what consumers pay for these products and services. The user metrics show the number of customers who have made at least one online purchase within the past 12 months.

Modeling approach / Market size:

Market sizes are determined through a bottom-up approach, building on predefined factors for each market. As a basis for evaluating markets, we use annual financial reports of the market-leading companies, third-party studies and reports, as well as survey results from our primary research (e.g., the Statista Global Consumer Survey). In addition, we use relevant key market indicators and data from country-specific associations, such as GDP, GDP per capita, and internet connection speed. This data helps us estimate the market size for each country individually.

Forecasts:

In our forecasts, we apply diverse forecasting techniques. The selection of forecasting techniques is based on the behavior of the relevant market. For example, the S-curve function and exponential trend smoothing. The main drivers are internet users, urban population, usage of key players, and attitudes toward online services.

Additional notes:

The market is updated twice a year in case market dynamics change. The impact of the COVID-19 pandemic and the Russia-Ukraine war are considered at a country-specific level. GCS data is reweighted for representativeness.
