"Use clear front-of-pack nutrition and chef-led collaborations to build trust and pride in convenience. Unlock breakfast and weekend occasions by positioning convenience as a low-effort route to indulgence."
Javier Munoz, Research - Mintel Reports
Convenience continues to climb in relevance, driven by busy routines: 45% of category users are too busy to cook as much as they would like and these time-strapped consumers tend to tap into convenience food/drink more frequently. This makes convenience a core part of planned grocery shopping, rather than an impulse buy. Yet, reliance still clusters around weekday lunches, leaving breakfast and weekend moments relatively untapped.
Stigma around convenience persists, with 37% of Germans embarrassed to serve such products to friends/family, while foodservice VAT cuts and rapid-delivery options raise the bar for ‘instant’ solutions. At the same time, packaging regulations are tightening and nearly half of Germans believe convenience products generate too much waste, putting additional pressure on brands.
Since shoppers actively check labels and favour clear nutritional cues, the Nutri-Score remains under-applied. Brands can use frozen formats, thanks to their strong health legitimacy and role in speeding up cooking, with stronger front-of-pack communication on speed and portionability.
The first Mintel Market Intelligence report was published over 50 years ago. Since then, we have provided our unique insights and understanding of consumers, innovation and global markets to thousands of customers worldwide. Here’s why our customers rely on Mintel:
Curious about how a Market Intelligence report comes together? We like to think of it as building a detailed puzzle. We start with individual pieces: data from consumers, market statistics, industry trends, and online conversations. Then our expert analysts add world-class human insight and industry knowledge. The pieces are assembled to reveal a clear, comprehensive picture of a market.
We use a combination of four main research methods when creating our reports, each adding a valuable perspective:
Each of these four pillars provides a different piece of the puzzle. Consumer research tells us what customers think, desk research provides the factual framework, trade research offers an insider’s view, and social media analysis reveals public sentiment.
Our expert analysts are skilled in weaving these diverse data streams together. They apply a range of quantitative and qualitative analysis techniques to uncover the deeper story, connecting the dots to deliver clear, actionable insights. This comprehensive, multi-layered process is how we transform raw data into a market intelligence report you can trust to inform your most important business decisions.

There is no question that Mintel is the go-to resource for the best quality market research, but I did not think it was an affordable option for Abacus Marketing to consider. As a small marketing agency, we only work with a few new clients each year.
However, we have a very high-end consultative approach to our work, so we really do need a partner like Mintel to provide the big agency experience we are always aiming to deliver. Our clients come from an incredibly diverse range of industry sectors, so we obviously need access to market research reports from a very wide spectrum of marketplaces – and that is precisely what we got.
We use Mintel to inform our thinking and reinforce strategy. If you’re presenting new ideas, it’s essential they are underpinned by robust data and evidence, and clearly rooted in fact.
Mintel gives us all that. It’s a great brand and one that is trusted by clients.
Mintel helps us when we want to know something quickly – it provides fast answers to our questions. If we need to get a view of what’s going on in a particular market it’s very useful.
When carrying out background research, I find Mintel an excellent starting point.
The fact that it covers so many markets is a big plus for me– instead of having to buy specialist products in each area we are interested in, especially when we only require a brief view on a particular market, we can go to Mintel for help as a one-stop shop. I find Mintel a useful and valuable resource.
One of the biggest challenges we face is the need to get smart on a business or category real quick.
We are talking to clients who live and breathe their category every day and the expectation is that we will be able to get caught up very quickly, and bring the thinking that can help them.
We need to do that often in a matter of days, so it’s not a small ask. Mintel gives us a very articulate view of category conditions and does so at the speed we need it.
At Jackman, we believe that powerful strategies are based on human insight. Mintel’s leading-edge reports and insights into consumer attitudes and behaviors are an important input as we develop and execute strategy.
Whatever your business needs, we have the solution. From market intelligence reports to customised growth strategies.
