- The Dutch Consumer -
Key Lifestyle Trends
Time pressure impacting eating & shopping habits among young Dutch
•
Young Dutch consumers (18-34) are leading busy lives and food preparation time is limited.
•
They like foods that are easy to prepare and are more favourable to meal components and
convenience meals than older Dutch.
Marketing of foods as fresh offers competitive advantage
•
Dutch consumers are very interested in fresh produce.
•
They have a strong preference for fresh over frozen meals and see fresh as very important
on a label.
Competitive Prices.
•
Price is very important to the Dutch consumer.
“The Dutch seek out promotional offers, they’ll look for the best value for money within
store, quality isn’t as important as price.”
Source; PERIscope, 2008
Key Lifestyle Trends
Time saving/convenience products
•
Six in ten 18-34 year olds claim they rarely have time for breakfast – which may represent an
opportunity to market convenience breakfast or on the go breakfast options to this age group.
•
Younger Dutch consumers are looking for easy to cook and prepare options.
•
Older Dutch are more likely to make an extra effort for meals and have good cooking skills more sophisticated meal components may appeal to this group.
Low involvement in local foods and high interest in new foods may make it easier to break into the
Dutch market.
•
Dutch consumers lack of interest in local produce and in country of origin may make it easier to
launch Irish products.
•
Irish products that offers convenience and freshness will resonate well with Dutch consumers
who are particularly interested in new foods.
Source; PERIscope, 2008
Consumer
Trends
Price Conscious …
• The average food spend on a evening meal for 4 is
€6.80 (source Albert Heijn)
Shopping Patterns …
• Many Dutch customers travel to the supermarket by
bicycle, so bulk buying is not so prevalent
• Small houses and therefore kitchens - not everyone
has room for a chest freezer
Lifestyles ….
• Number of working women and smaller households are
increasing
• Driving demand for easy to prepare meal solutions

Very dense retail environment
Distinction between different retailers is relatively limited, hence the intense
focus on price
Price war started by Albert Heijn (end of 2003) to provoke shake-up in the
Dutch retail scene – Super de Boer biggest casualty.
Price wars have since eased in intensity – but price remains an important
tool for promotion.
Renewed emphasis on price due to economic climate?

•
PL better margins to retailers and as a weapon in the

•

Foodservice to 2010
The three most important changes:
1. Rising commodity prices: grains, oil, meat, fish and dairy to
become extremely expensive. Consumer prices to rise
drastically, leading to greater emphasis on price competition and
many outlets seeking alternative suppliers.
2. Sustainability: Still relatively small, but importance growing
rapidly
3. Health and Wellness: already an important trend – will
become even more so.
