North America Ice Cream COVID 19 Insights:
Consumers in North America avoided ice creams as the fear of COVID-19 and supply chain disruptions affected ice cream sales. In addition, the decrease in consumption is mainly due to compliance with the movement restriction standards, which has led to the closure of retail stores and vending machines and the decrease in consumption. Takeaway ice cream showed a sharp drop of about 30% during the pandemic. Meanwhile, increased time spent at home and restricted blockades have changed customer trends towards online platforms, increasing e-commerce growth by about 49%.
North America Ice Cream Market Dynamics:
Demand for premium ice cream increased in the region, driving the market growth. Some of these premium ice creams are gaining popularity among health-conscious consumers due to their low calorie / sugar-free claims compared to regular ice cream. In 2020, Nestlé SA has added a new ice cream collection called Haven. It has half the fat, one-third the calories, and 25% less sugar than regular ice cream.
Health concerns are growing in the region. As a result, consumers in the region prefer non-GMO, preservative-free, dairy-free, low-calorie, organic, and fat-free ice cream products. This segment recorded the largest sales in the US market due to its large availability and relatively high price of takeaway ice cream. These ice creams are also receiving a lot of attention from retail consumers due to the value packs they offer.
Ice cream makers use premium and innovative ingredients to create their products in order to gain a competitive advantage and appeal to North American consumers. This factor also increases their customer base. Increasing consumer demand for genuine ingredients and natural flavors has forced companies to develop new products. As the number of vegans increases in North America, the need for dairy-free products and dairy-free ice cream increases.
Ice cream products require high storage costs and logistics to maintain the required temperature of the product. The storage location must maintain a very low freezing temperature, which requires high energy consumption. These factors are also expected to slow market growth.
