Boston, MA -- (SBWIRE) -- 11/27/2012 -- Food consumption is expected to increase steadily over our five-year forecast period, reaching a projected HRK14.17bn by 2017, which represents a modest local currency compound annual growth rate of 2.4% on 2012 levels. The overall value will remain low by Western European standards. Croatia's subdued longer-term demographic outlook will play a part in such market dynamics. In 2012, we expect that food consumption will have increased slightly, by 0.5% in local currency terms. This outlook is based on the expected continuation of a challenging economic situation, including high unemployment and a VAT increase, which will continue to negatively impact consumer confidence and thus also favour cheaper private label products.
