The data

This data provides very valuable information relating to consumer purchasing patterns and behaviours in a market which is an important area of expenditure for all consumers, given that the average household in Ireland spends approximately one fifth of their total weekly expenditure on groceries.

A recent presentation by Kantar to the National Consumer Agency gives a summary update of grocery and shopper trends up to and including Christmas 2009.

The presentation examines:

  • The total spend in the grocery market, by sector, during 2009
  • A comparison with trends in previous years
  • The number of stores visited by consumers
  • Branded and own brand market shares
  • Level of promotional activity
  • Some comparable data for the UK grocery market
