SPAR's own-brand pet food range is here

SPAR, the leading symbol group in the UK, has launched a new own brand pet food range under the SPAR International label SPAR N°1. The range of ten pet food products will provide shoppers with an even wider choice of quality, everyday essential pet food products at great prices.

Amrit Rebello, SPAR UK Brand Manager, said, “One of the unexpected outcomes of the pandemic was the sharp increase in pet ownership and as a result we are delighted to launch a range of 10 SKUs for cats and dogs to meet the increased demand for pet food in our stores.


“We know that the pet category is a high value opportunity for SPAR stores as the basket-spend of pet food shoppers is significantly more than non-pet product shoppers.

“The design of our new SPAR N°1 range perfectly complements pet owners who see their pets as part of their family and are for many their number one priority,” added Rebello.

The new range of SPAR own label pet food consists of five wet cat food SKUs and five wet dog food SKUs, which will support the current pet products in the SPAR range. The new range will bolster the existing range of five SKUs by offering shoppers more choice in this category.

The SPAR N°1 dog food NPD includes cans and alu-tray formats whilst the cat food offers individual tray options as well as pouch multipacks.

The SPAR N°1 range design includes helpful icons to highlight the added vitamins and health benefit credentials within the range, as well as the protein variants.

Carlsberg shifts marketing focus as drinkers choose cheaper beer

Brewer Carlsberg is shifting some of its marketing focus to cheaper brands, it said on Thursday (31), as consumers in major markets bought cheaper beer and in reduced quantities.

The maker of Kronenbourg 1664, Tuborg and Somersby said beer sales volumes fell by 1.3 per cent in the third quarter, noting declines in China, France and the United Kingdom. Premium sales fell 0.5 per cent in the quarter."In Western Europe, there's no doubt that the average consumer is holding back," CEO Jacob Aarup-Andersen told Reuters.

Consumers value ethics though 'sustainability needs to be competitively priced'

Consumers now want a greater commitment from retailers in cutting food waste, refilling stations, sustainable packaging, and partnering with social purpose organisations, states a recent research, which also highlights that a good majority (69 per cent) of younger consumers are more likely to shop with what they see as socially responsible retailers though price sensitivity still plays a crucial role.

According to the findings, published in Vypr’s Consumer Horizon Report, reducing food waste is the most important factor for the majority of UK consumers (29 per cent), especially for Gen Z women aged 18-24 (38 per cent). More than a third (37 per cent) of men aged 18-24 said they needed food storage advice. A similar number of women aged 18-24 (33 per cent) want meal kits with the exact amount of ingredients included for them to cut down on food waste.
