Boston, MA -- (SBWIRE) -- 06/12/2014 -- Gum is set to record a slower retail value growth in 2013 than in 2012. However, the category is still expected to post a positive performance as consumers favour it for its refreshing taste, as well as enabling them to keep their mouths refreshed.

Competitive Landscape

Wrigley's retail value share is set to decline slightly in 2013 although the company is expected to sustain its lead with a 96% retail value share. The established presence of the player is the key contributor to its performance in 2013 with consumers' strong familiarity with the product quality offered. Regular product innovations also supported the player's leadership throughout the review period.

Industry Prospects

Over the forecast period, gum is expected to continue to register positive constant value. With the increasing maturity of gum, it is unlikely to see the huge spikes in growth witnessed over the review period. Consumers are increasingly switching from sugarised to sugar free gum, in view of their rising health consciousness.
