Featuring Category Partners Vice President Adam Brohimer and Category Partners Senior Vice President of Research and Market Intel Cara Ammon, “How U.S. Seafood Consumers are Adapting to Inflation and Impacting Retail Sales” is available free for SeafoodSource Premium members and for USD 300 (EUR 278) to non-members through the Complete Digital Ticket: Seafood Expo North America 2023.
The session was presented on Tuesday, 14 March 2023, with the following description:
Consumers are feeling increasing pressure with respect to product shortages and retail grocery price inflation. Traditional media, politicians, and investment advisors – just to name a few – are all discussing what is happening. Getting far less attention, but perhaps far more consequential, is the conversation around how seafood consumers are adjusting their shopping behaviors in anticipation of, or reaction to, price increases.
Category Partners has conducted a series of analyses and consumer surveys over the last 18 months designed to measure and track consumer sentiment and sales trends as events have unfolded. This session conducted by Category Partners will highlight what this research uncovered, covering topics like how long consumers anticipate the inflation trend to last, consumer switching across package sizes, deal seeking, product trade ups/downs, actual retail price points and product pricing trends, channel/retailer switching, and other elements important to them.
Category Partners will highlight consumer realities and dynamics at retail grocery that are occurring, or will be occurring, in a U.S. market near you.
The entire package of videos from SEG can also be purchased for USD 300 for non-members and is free to SeafoodSource Premium members through the Complete Digital Ticket: Seafood Expo Global 2023.
