Key Market Issues
In mid-September, the country suffered its worst flooding on record when tropical storms Manuel and Ingrid converged from the Pacific and the Gulf of Mexico, killing more than 150 people and causing estimated damage of around US$6 bn.
The unemployment rate in September 2013 was 4.92%, greater than the one registered the same month last year.
In August, remittances from Mexicans from outside slowed their negative trend of 13 months, after registering an increase of 1.15% compared to last year. The growth in remittances was achieved thanks to the appreciation in the exchange rate and to the slight recovery trend in American jobs, from which 98% of remittances came from.
Private Label brands are taking advantage of the economic situation. They showed a good performance in Q3-13, mainly due to the decreasing consumer purchasing power.
The National Association of Supermarkets and Department Stores (ANTAD) revealed that in September the sales of the associated chains, including openings, reported a weak growth 2% while same units reported a decrease of 3%.
Key Highlights
By increasing its national distribution force, making efforts in the convenience channel and launching a successful promotion which gives free mobile phone airtime, Ciel increase its packaged water market share.
Although it is a difficult economic landscape, the juice category achieved a moderate 1% growth boosted by its performance in the traditional channel.
The Federal Competition Commission established new terms for the exclusivity contracts of the two market leaders, GrupoModelo and Heineken. Both brewers will allow the free entrance of artisanal beers to the on-premise channels where they already sell and must also limit their exclusivity contracts in traditional stores and restaurants with a maximum of 25% of its outlets. The final solution will benefit artisanal beers and also to a lesser extent imported beers
Despite the domestic consumption of cider being mainly related to December celebrations, the category showed a solid 38% growth (from a small base), boosted by Strongbow's efforts in the modern and on-premise channels.
Hot coffee is predicted to show a steady 3% growth in 2013, driven by investment made by Nestlé in coffee production and product innovation.
