Convenience/Forecourt
Research suggests we will see a 70% growth in the convenience food sector in the next 15 years, with food multiples aggressively expanding their small format stores. Increased trust in online purchasing, the introduction of new e-commerce platforms, increasing consumer time pressures and the popularity of at-home leisure activities are the other key growth drivers for this sector, set to be worth £12.3bn by 2015.
Changing lifestyles have also led to rapid growth in forecourt retailing, thanks especially to the ever increasing sophistication of its food offering. Tesco Express, Sainsbury’s Local and M&S Simply Food are going from strength to strength and with these units trading longer hours than traditional retailers, footfall and turnover is showing no sign of slowing.
