"Cat Food in South Africa" Now Available at Fast Market Research

New Consumer Goods research report from Euromonitor International is now available from Fast Market Research

 

Boston, MA -- (SBWIRE) -- 09/02/2014 -- Due to the weak economy, which continued to slow during the review period, a majority of South African cat owners have been contemplating how they are to continue to treat their cats as a member of the family, while at the same time maintain a tight budget. It is expected that this dilemma is the cause for price sensitivity and a nominal shift in buying habits among consumers that once preferred only purchasing premium brand cat food, but have been forced to downshift to mid-priced or economy brands in search of value and affordability.

Competitive Landscape:

Nestle South Africa leads South African cat food with a value share of 31% in 2013. This is a significant drop in comparison to the previous year's 37% share, as the company sold its Epol brand. The leading brand is Nestle's Purina Friskies with a 23% share in 2013. In second position overall, with 25%, is Mars Africa. Its Whiskas brand falls in second position overall. Foodcorp falls into third position with its Catmor brand seeing good growth to reach almost 9% share in 2013.
