What is the current market landscape and what is changing?
Mexico's growing base of young and affluent customers will drive strong future growth in Confectionery categories.

Improving economic conditions will drive growth in the sector's value, though some categories have recovered faster than others.

What are the key drivers behind recent market changes?
A large, young and rapidly growing population and rising living standards makes Mexico a key emerging market for consumer packaged goods companies. However, the rising price of staple foods is damaging the ability of the country's young middle class to purchase packaged goods. Meanwhile, convenience is of growing importance in Mexican food culture, as consumers look for quick and easy meals as a result of long working hours, the loss of women at home to cook meals as they enter the workforce, or as consumers replace traditional meal times with other leisure activities.
