Providing the most comprehensive and up-to-date information and analysis of the Italy Supermarket industry including the behaviors, preferences and habits of the consumer.
As with most other retail sectors, the grocery retailing sector in Italy has been significantly affected by the COVID-19 outbreak during 2020. A national lockdown mandated that only essential stores (which included grocery retailers) were able to stay open for a period which lasted around two months. However, unlike most other retail sectors, the impact of the outbreak has been generally positive, with a few exceptions, since sales have been boosted by the enforced closure during lockdown of nearly all out-of-home eating establishments, while the lockdown and consumers’ subsequent reluctance to shop in-store has also provided a dramatic boost to the uptake of online grocery shopping services.
Brands featured: Conad Group, Coop Italia, Selex, Esselunga, Crai, Gruppo VéGé, Eurospin, Lidl, Carrefour, Despar and others.
Written by Michael Oliver, a leading analyst in the Retail sector, his extensive knowledge delivers in-depth commentary and analysis to highlight current trends and add expert context to the numbers.
Even before the COVID-19 outbreak, the focus of many Italian households was on price and value when it came to grocery shopping and this played into the hands of the discounters. With rising unemployment and reduced household disposable incomes for many in 2021, these pressures will only increase, so we expect discounters to gain further share. However, the likes of Conad and Coop have the tools to respond to the threat posed by the discounters, each having a strong and growing own label range, while their cooperative structures play into the trends towards community, localism and sustainability.
