The Bulgarian market for confectionery; outlook: value sales growth by sector

Article Abstract:

Retail sales for the overall confectionery market in Bulgaria, is anticipated to grow by 44% in real value, from 1998 to 2002. Sugar confectionery is expected to register a value growth rate of 48%, followed by chocolate with 46%, while chewing gum comes third with 26%. While a growing consumer interest in more upscale products and the greater promotion of merchandise are expected to spur the growth in chocolate and sugar confectionery, the chewing gum subsector is not expected to register substantial growth, as current demand for those products will reach saturation point among younger age groups.
