New reports
Garden Products Retailing - UK
![]() Changing Face of the Web - A Ten Year Review - UK
![]() This report will look at the changing nature of the web and device ownership in general. However, it does include specific market sizes for a number of sectors, including the music and video industries as well as detailing the number of e-shoppers and the amount spent online between 1998 and 2009. In addition, Mintel provides data on the amount spent on internet advertising between 2002 and 2009, as well as breaking down the amount spent online by type of online media in 2009. Condiments - US
![]() One of the many ramifications of the recession has been an increase in meals consumed at home and prepared by the consumer. Condiments have benefited greatly. No wonder; condiments can be simply served with food or incorporated into from-scratch recipes, depending on the consumer’s commitment to cooking or their need for convenience. Poultry and Game Meat - UK
![]() The poultry sector saw volume sales decline for a number of years under pressure from bird flu and rapidly rising inflation. However, the poultry market has regained momentum in the recession, enjoying a strong image as easy to cook, versatile and better value for money than red meat. Independent Holidays - UK
![]() This report considers independent holidays, examining consumer trends, how the recession has impacted the market, innovations of relevance, the future of the market, strengths and weaknesses, segment performance, consumer attitudes, research and booking methods. Package Holidays - UK
![]() This report examines package holidays, considering who takes such trips, what they look for from these holidays and why, the strengths and weaknesses of the segment, how packages break down by destination, duration and cost, innovations of relevance, consumer trends and the future prospects of the market. Used Car Market - UK
![]() This report analyses the market for cars bought and sold as second-hand which are also referred to throughout this report as used cars. The report analyses the retail market for used cars which are cars bought by private individuals in the Private and Light Goods (PLG) class which therefore excludes commercial vehicles. Collective Investments - UK
![]() 2009 was a much better one for the investment management industry. Demand for unit trust and OEICs picked up strongly during the second half, with gross retail sales for the whole year up by nearly a quarter. Funds under management rose by a third during 2009, reflecting an improvement in global stock markets and renewed investor confidence. The investment trust sector similarly managed strong growth in total assets under management and market capitalisation. Cordials and Squashes - UK
![]() The squash/cordials market was in slow but steady decline until the economic downturn radically changed consumer purchasing habits, with value overriding the desire for premium and healthy soft drink products. Male Grooming and Personal Care Consumer (The) - UK
![]() This is the first time that Mintel has examined men’s attitudes towards grooming and personal care. The report complements Mintel’s reports Men’s Grooming – UK, June 2010 and Men’s Fragrances – UK, September 2010 and examines how men’s attitudes towards the beauty and personal care industry can be built upon to drive interest in the sector and encourage continued product usage beyond employment and into retirement. Wine, Cocktail and Champagne Bars - UK
![]() Pies and Pasties - UK
![]() Featured reports
![]() Binge drinking (defined by the government/NHS as 6 units in one session for women and 8 for men) is rife among 18-24-year-olds, with four in five of this age group exceeding the recommended limit on a regular basis. Although the drivers of binge drinking among the young is multi-faceted, lack of awareness about how easy it is to drink excessively is undoubtedly a major cause. For example, more than half of regular binge drinkers are unwittingly so, and many 18-24-year-olds believe binge drinking means losing control of one’s senses as opposed to having as little as two large glasses of wine (for a woman) or three pints of premium-strength lager (for a man). ![]() The Black consumer plays an important role in the economy and in supporting the restaurant industry. With education levels increasing, Blacks are earning higher household incomes and moving to areas of the country where their numbers in the past have been quite low. As with most consumers, the Black consumer is concerned with the cost of dining out, but they still do dine out and seek new choices that appeal to their taste buds and their wallet. |
