Due to the high inflation, some consumers are buying different types of vegetables. “In order to save money, those customers strongly buy discount products and fewer premium goods,” states Jan Willutzki from EDEKA Group, Germany’s largest supermarket corporation. To gain a better understanding of the changes in vegetable buying behaviour, Rijk Zwaan conducted research among consumers in Germany, the UK and Spain. The findings are analysed in a whitepaper which the vegetable breeding company will be sharing with value chain partners at its Retail Center in Berlin during Fruit Logistica.
