Key Market Issues

Heavy rate consumption of Chutneys & Relishes in India sits at a proportion of 20% for all age groups, with the exception of Tweens & Early Teens where it is at 31%. Tweens & Early Teens are at an age where they can help themselves to snacks and basic foods for the first time without parental assistance. Chutneys & Relishes are a quick an easy way to add taste to a quick snack and smaller meals. Older ages groups have access to other alternatives. Marketers should use this info to target their campaigns accordingly.

The Seasonings, Dressings & Sauces market is dominated by the Herbs, Spices & Seasonings category, which accounts for over 70% value share. This is almost four times as much as the next largest category, Chutneys & Relishes. Any changes that can be made in consumption behaviors in this category will have the largest effect on the overall market.

There is a slightly higher proportion of Males in India than Females; however, an higher proportion of the Condiments market is consumed by Females than Males.

Key Highlights

All age groups in India represent a proportion of the Seasonings, Dressings & Sauces market that relates to their share of the population. This indicates that all age groups are important for marketers to consider. However, the largest group, due to its share of the population, is the Kids & Babies group.

Not only do a large proportion of Indian consumers highlight that specific consumer trends have an influence on their consumption, this translates into a significant proportion of actual value being directly influenced as well. Consumers are therefore acting on these trends enough to ensure that targeting them, in the right categories, is essential to success.

Private Label products have only small shares of all Seasonings, Dressings & Sauces categories in India. However, the concept of Private Label branding is relatively new and there is room for growth as there are also national brands with small shares in these categories. Marketers of these national brands need to ensure that they differentiate their products enough to prevent becoming targets for this potential Private Label competition.
