DUBLIN--(BUSINESS WIRE)--Dec 6, 2018--The “Manufacture of Breakfast Cereals in South Africa 2018” report has been added to ResearchAndMarkets.com’s offering.

This report focuses on the manufacture of breakfast cereals in South Africa, which remains resilient in difficult conditions.The market is dominated by three large companies, Tiger Brands, Pioneer Foods and Kellogg’s South Africa. Statistics SA figures show that bread and cereal prices were 3.1% cheaper in June 2018 than they were in June 2017, indicating significant price pressure in a highly competitive market.Challenging ConditionsThis sector is operating under challenging trading conditions as a result of rising input costs and weaker consumer demand due to a lack of disposable income. Trends in the sector include increased demand for better nutrition in breakfast cereals and concerns over high sugar and carb content.

Continued consumer preference for convenience has led to an increase in easy-to-use products such as breakfast biscuits and snack bars. The growing popularity of these products and rising health awareness among consumers are expected to influence demand and consumption of breakfast cereals.
