    After the new crown epidemic in 2020, the snack market will show a trend of recovery in 2021


    According to Kantar Worldpanel's observation, consumers' purchase of snacks mainly presents three major trends: the increasing importance of small business formats and online shopping, consumers' preference for multi-packs and large packages, and the rise of high-protein categories


    The study found that the main channel for Chinese urban users to buy snacks is hypermarkets, with a share of nearly a quarter


    For manufacturers, how to use small channels, online channels and emerging O2O channels to help future growth has become more and more urgent


    The growing consumer basket is the main driver of the snack market growth


    For different snack food categories, the reasons are different: manufacturers of biscuits, puffed food, cake pies and Chinese pastries can focus on the multi-pack trend, while manufacturers of nuts, cheese, chewing gum, and jelly can focus on large packaging


    Snacks cover a variety of categories, among which biscuits, nuts, puffed food and chocolate are the top four categories that consumers buy the most, contributing more than 70% of the overall share


    The main reason for the growth of puffed food, ice cream and jelly is that consumers are spending more time at home due to the impact of the epidemic


    Snack manufacturers quickly paid attention to this trend, and followed up in a variety of ways: some directly launched new products, such as the Binshan Nut Bar launched by Mars; some combined their own products to make crossovers, such as Mondelez’s Oreo Nut Holder Hold; there are also brand co-branded, cleverly borrowed traffic, such as the cheese hot and sour lava noodles jointly launched by Bagifu Cheese


    In 2021, the snack market will enter the new normal after the epidemic, and the Spring Festival will show a warming trend.
