Food is consumed and purchased daily, which makes it an essential part of everyday life and means that it is an exceptionally fast-paced and ever-changing industry. The food industry covers a multifaceted network of activities, including the supply, consumption and catering of consumables. The industry employs a huge number of both skilled and unskilled workers year on year and as such, is a hugely important sector.
The food sector covers many different categories. There are always price and promotional offers to look out for, so it is a highly competitive industry. Furthermore, NPD at the store level needs to be monitored.
The food sector is made up of a complex network of diverse businesses which supply food that is consumed all around the world. The global food industry is dominated by a number of big players – namely large, powerful multinationals. Supermarkets are the defining retail element of the food industry, with tens of thousands of products gathered in one location, in a continuous, all-year-round supply.
