TRENDS
Drinking milk products in Thailand posted respectable current value growth of 9% in 2013, up from an 8% gain in 2012 thanks to the endeavours of brand players in terms of new product development and integrated marketing campaigns to boost demand. In fact, drinking milk is regarded as an inexpensive source of protein and calcium, with a link to holistic health and wellness benefits. Thai consumers are familiar with packaged drinking milk products.
Over the review period brand players sought to introduce new flavours and premium products so as to differentiate their offerings in terms of taste and quality. In addition, major players showed an interest in establishing direct contact with consumer foodservice outlets given the higher loyalty to brands and rising demand in this channel.
In cow's milk, long-life/UHT milk accounted for 72% of value sales, although full-fat fresh/pasteurised milk recorded the strongest current value growth of 16%. Full-fat in milk is perceived as offering a better taste by most Thai children, who are not concerned by fat content. The rapid expansion of modern retail outlets has enabled chilled drinking milk products to achieve positive sales growth.
