Chapter 2: Prepared Foods Macroeconomic Analysis
In this section, Packaged Facts provides directional analysis on the effects key macroeconomic drivers are having on RTE foods found at convenience stores, gas stations, grocery stores and supermarkets. We frame analysis within the broader context of the foodservice market. While key macroeconomic drivers have begun moving in a more positive direction, Packaged Facts believes consumers will remained pressured through 2010. While Q1 2010 restaurant spending shows life, we do not believe it is sustainable without changes in the employment and housing markets. Longer-term trends continue to favor food retail.
Sales at food services and drinking places tick upward in February and March 2010
The National Restaurant Association’s more upbeat outlook is supported by data from the U.S Census. Below, Packaged Facts compares monthly sales with year-earlier monthly sales, which reveals that March 2010 (non-adjusted) food services and drinking places sales were 2.7% higher than March 2009 sales. When adjusted for seasonal variations and holiday and trading-day differences, sales rose by 2.9%.
However, March 2010 (non-adjusted) grocery store sales were 5.3% higher than those estimated for March 2009. On an adjusted basis, sales rose by 3.1%. So, while growing springtime sales may have buoyed restaurants, grocery stores sales have not only kept pace, but so far in 2010 they have actually grown at a faster pace.
Packaged Facts’ Consumer Restaurant Tracker: home meal use gains ground
And, as suggested by Packaged Facts’ Consumer Restaurant Tracker, consumers report continuing to shift their food spending into the home, as illustrated by the graph below. Data are derived from Packaged Facts’ February 2010 proprietary restaurant tracking survey.
• Compared to “three months ago,” about 50% of respondent adult (18+) restaurant goers say they are more likely to eat dinner at home—with almost one-third doing so “a lot more.”
• 39% say they are eating breakfast at home more than they were three months ago—with almost 3 in 10 doing so “a lot more.”
• Conversely, restaurant goers are less likely to be using or spending on a range of restaurant options. Of course, much of this behavior is related to cost: to save money, consumers are bringing their food spend back into the home, after decades of doing the opposite.
And one key barometer, the Consumer Price Index, supports the rationale, as it shows “food at home” prices not only declining during the recession, but also being cheaper than “food away from home” (see the Food at home gains pricing edge section below).

Recessionary Decline in Restaurant Traffic a Plus for Fresh Convenience Foods
The results of Packaged Facts’ consumer survey support the conclusion presented earlier in this report—that key to fresh convenience food market growth in the face of the 2008/2009 “Great Recession” and still-iffy U.S. economy is the trend whereby consumers have traded down from restaurant meals in favor of fresh prepared foods. Since the recession began, 49% of the adults surveyed reported that they had eaten less at fast-food restaurants and 50% said they’d eaten less fast-food takeout, while 61% said they’d eaten less at sit-down restaurants. Conversely, the percent of adults who strongly agreed that they were spending less on groceries because of the economy was only 15%, while another 28% somewhat agreed. In other words, restaurants experienced a significant drop-off in consumer demand even as relatively few consumers cut back on grocery spending. [Figure 1-2]
18% of U.S. Consumers Are Buying More Fresh Prepared Foods
Packaged Facts also asked its consumer panel if they had eaten more fresh prepared food since the recession began, with 18% responding that they had. While not directly parallel (since the question is in the past tense), it does pose an interesting contrast to the combined total of 13% of consumers who said they would spend a little or a lot more on fast food, restaurant dining, and takeout from those outlets in the following three months, as discussed above, since the figures imply a gradual swing back in the restaurant direction.
Entrees Top Unpackaged Foods Chart
Based on data from sources including SymphonyIRI and FreshLook Marketing Group (FLM—Hoffman Estates, IL), the first syndicated scanner-based database to track perishable categories, Packaged Facts estimates that entrees account for the largest share of unpackaged fresh convenience food sales, at 30%, followed by sandwiches/pizza (22%), appetizers & trays (18%), and salads (16%). However, as discussed elsewhere in this report, it is important...
