Apart from this, sales of biscuits in Switzerland are also expected to benefit from the steady rise in retail sales post the economic depression of 2008. To benefit from the promising growth prospects of the retail sector in the country, confectionary and bakery product manufacturers are adopting the course of engaging in organized retailing, marketing, and effective branding strategies.

Rising Raw Material Costs to Intensify Price-war Among Key Vendors

The minimum selling prices of essential raw materials required for the production of a variety of biscuits have witnessed price rise of in the range of 25-30% over the past few years. While trying to hold on to prices of their products in the intensely competitive market, most biscuit manufacturers have tried ways of reducing production costs. On an average, biscuit companies have profit margins between 3% and 5%.

Apart from the rising prices of raw materials, a rise in labor and packaging costs have resulted in a substantial rise in input costs. Thus the growth in these profit margins has remained stagnant in the past few years. High input prices are expected to remain one of the most significant factors impacting the overall development of the Switzerland biscuits market in the next few years.

Nevertheless, the rising demand for easy to consume and healthy snacks and the overall appeal of Swiss confectionaries among tourists will enable the market to tread along a sustained growth path in the next few years. Transparency Market Research estimates that the Switzerland biscuits market, which held an opportunity worth US$973.3 mn in 2015, is expected to rise at a CAGR of 1.7% from 2016 through 2024 and rise to US$1,125.7 mn by 2024. The market is expected to expand at a 1.2% CAGR in terms of volume over the said period.
