What is the current market landscape and what is changing?

Key Highlights
Private label penetration is relatively high, with 27% of the volume of Oils products distributed and 38% of the volume of Solid Fats products distributed being private label. Further, both markets are fragmented, indicating that weaker brands may come under further threat from private label growth.
The Oils category accounts for 97% of the Oils & Solid Fats market in Spain, whilst accounting for 94% of the market by volume. This highlights that Oils marketers have been more successful than Solid Fats marketers at introducing premium products.
Not only do a large proportion of Spanish consumers in the Oils category highlight that specific consumer trends such as Changing Age Structures and Indulgence have an influence on their consumption, this translates into a significant proportion of actual value being directly influenced as well. Consumers are therefore acting on these trends enough to ensure that targeting them, in the right categories, is essential to success. In contrast, trends have a very limited impact on the Solid Fats category.
