As consumers seek to escape the pressures of uncertain times, they find comfort in snacking on indulgent treats. Yet, with grocery budgets stretched, brands are under pressure to tempt taste buds but also offer monetary value. 

Join Mintel Big Conversation Offline Event in Sydney as this time, we will explore the perception of indulgent food and drink launches through the eyes of the Aussie consumer, including:

  • Driving decadence
  • Better for you indulgence
  • Balancing indulgence with good value 

The session will uncover Australian consumer sentiment on new food/drink launches captured through Mintel Purchase Intelligence. 

Recommendations will be provided that can assist your innovation planning, range reviews, competitor profiling or post launch analysis. 

Attendees will also be invited to participate in an expert panel discussion on opportunities within indulgence and view products making a splash with Australian consumers.

Beauty innovation has split into two models: rapid, culturally responsive launches that convert attention into trial, and slower, science-led development that creates defensible value and builds worlds consumers want to belong to. In the future, growth will come from matching the pace of innovation to the consumer need, rather than treating speed or retail presence as the strategy itself.
