Consumption will be increasingly driven by the desire to indulge in innovative bakery products
Degree of influence the Experience & Enjoyment mega-trend has on demographic groups
Gender
Both genders are significantly influenced by all of the Experience & Enjoyment sub-trends across the board. The difference in consumption influence in the Indulgence and Quality Seeking trends is marginal, whereas in Experience Seeking, XX% of women's' consumption is influenced by the trend, as opposed to XX% of men's consumption.
Age groups
Older Young Adults and Pre-Mid-Lifers are the most affected by both the Experience Seeking and Indulgence trends with volume influenced greater than XX% and XX%, respectively. These age groups often have young families while maintaining a career, therefore they seek indulgent products for escapism. Kids & Babies are the most influenced by Fun & Enjoyment.
How the Experience & Enjoyment mega-trend will evolve
As UK consumer lifestyles become increasingly busy and time scarce, the Experience & Enjoyment trend will continue to increase in importance, with consumers seeking escapism from daily pressures. There will be an increase in products that are specifically targeted to aid relaxation during a busy working day. As Kids & Babies drive the Fun & Enjoyment trend, manufacturers should launch products with a fun element that are positioned to appeal to both children and their parents, by incorporating both fun and healthy attributes. With increasing exposure to different cultures and cuisines, Experience Seeking will emerge as an important factor influencing Bakery & Cereals consumption. Consumers will look to get more from their chosen products through new flavor and mouthfeel innovations. Manufacturers need to underline indulgent taste credentials at all times, and should consider novel limited edition flavors to keep their product range fresh and innovative.

Manufacturers, marketers, and retailers need to capitalize on the aging population and remember the importance of value
Older Consumers: Manufacturers should cater to the specific nutritional needs of aging consumers. Older Consumers are a large share of the population in the UK, yet they remain largely untargeted. These consumers are driven to seek healthy foods and lifestyles because of their increased awareness of the importance of heart and brain health, and for improved digestion. This age group require specific nutrients and vitamins that are commonly found in wholegrain bakery products; these products therefore need to be effectively positioned.
Product: Healthy Life Bread
Manufacturer: Lewis Positioning: This is a 100% whole grain loaf
available in the US which has the benefits of being heart healthy, high fiber and low fat.
Manufacturers need to expand their range to include better value products: UK Consumers continue to seek brands which offer better value for money, a trend which has been seized by retailers such as Aldi, Asda, Morrisons, and Tesco. Retailers are using marketing methods including TV advertising, social media, and promotional campaigns to secure consumers for their private label ranges. Private Label has gained market share through the prolonged economic slowdown. Manufacturers need to consider the effect that rising private label success will have on their business. In order to compete with the improving and good value private label ranges manufactures need to expand their own product portfolios to include a budget range, comprised of lower cost products that attract
the value seeking consumers.
Product: Wholemeal Rolls Manufacturer: Kingsmill Positioning: Established
bread brand Kingsmill has introduced a range of pricemarked products that are good value and compete directly with private label products.
Organic and Natural: Marketers can target the gradually increasing numbers of health conscious consumers, who are increasingly trying to migrate to more organic and natural baked options. The demand for gluten free, and no artificial colors, additives, and preservatives is set to rise, as consumers' dietary preferences develop. Furthermore, wholegrain bakery products with high fiber content are increasing in popularity, due to their association with improved digestion. Such products all grant the consumer an additional benefit, be it of health or perceived higher quality.
Product: Weetabix Organic
Manufacturer: Weetabix Positioning:
Organic version of a traditional cereal with
ingredients of a perceived higher quality.
