It’s been a tough year for the out-of-home bakery market which was badly hit by the pandemic. There were job losses, store closures and lost revenue for many but there were a few bright spots, including the rise of online sales and delivery.
This feature will explore all this and more to determine what impact Covid-19 really had on the market, how companies adapted and what things could look like in the future.
This feature will accompany a ranking of the top 75 companies that sell baked goods as a primary element of their food offering in a non-supermarket retail, food-to-go or eat-in format.
Key questions this feature will explore:
- How has the out of home market performed over the past year?
- What impact has Covid-19 had on the market?
- Which areas of the market, such as travel and high street locations, have been the most adversely affected as a result?
- What actions have companies taken to bolster business during the pandemic and how successful were they in this mission?
- Will shopper habits created during the pandemic, such as an increase in online shopping, remain as business returns to normal? What will this mean for business models?
- What other legacies will remain post-Covid?
- What will the out of home market look like in the future?
- What steps need to be taken in order to ensure recovery of the out of home bakery market?
