Two years after the term credit crunch entered everyday vocabulary and a year after confirmation of economic recession, many have begun to ask what life will be like ‘after the storm’. Coupled with concerns for the environment, health, food security and food price inflation, food and grocery shopping will never be the same again. The focus now must be on anticipating the shopper of the future.

This report reveals shoppers’ expectations and aspirations for the coming three years and how these will shape future purchase decisions. For example:

  • Managers of food and grocery companies are more optimistic about the future than shoppers
  • Those who feel able to make a positive difference to the environment through their shopping decisions has almost halved in two years
  • Over half of shoppers expect to be more careful about their food choices in the year to come than today
  • Around one in seven expect to buy more premium private label in the coming few years
