Kids Food and Beverage Market in the U.S., 8th Edition

Packaged Facts’ latest report, The Kids Food and Beverage Market in the U.S., analyzes and trends seven food and beverage categories significant to children’s eating choices, usage occasions and need states, including breakfast foods, lunch foods, and dinner foods; sweet snacks and salty snacks; produce; and beverages.

Each category analysis includes trended usage of specific foods and beverages over a ten-year period (2006-2015) among households, drilling into households with children by key demographics (in particularly parents’ gender, generation, and HH income). Marketing strategies and product innovation relevant to each category’s position in the kids’ food and beverage market is also included, with careful consideration of how marketers are sating the needs and interests of both parents and kids. The report also analyzes the following:

Consumer attitudes toward factors influence the purchase of kids’ food and beverage, focusing on healthfulness, enjoyment/product attribute, and packaging/price.
