Drivers of China's snack development

(1) The health trend of new Chinese snacks is rapid

In recent years, consumers' attention to health has become increasingly prominent, and health and nutrition have become an industry trend that cannot be ignored. At the same time, as the new generation has become the main consumer force, they have higher requirements for product taste, nutrition and consumer experience. These changes not only bring unprecedented development opportunities to the snack industry, but also prompt suppliers to continuously improve efficiency and accelerate the pace of product innovation. In this context, the rapid rise of the health trend has become an important driving force for the development of leisure snack enterprises.

(2) Homogeneous competition is serious, and the market is not yet saturated

The homogenization and competition in the leisure snack industry is fierce, especially the quail egg segment market, which is still in the early stage of development and is far from reaching the ceiling. In 2023, the entire packaged quail egg market will experience explosive growth, and the growth rate of quail egg snacks will far exceed that of the entire leisure snack industry. According to the survey, the revenue of packaged quail eggs in China was about 1 billion yuan in 2022, and by 2023 it will surge to about 2.9 billion yuan, with an annual growth rate of 190%. The quail egg market has the potential and is growing much faster than expected and remains a hot area to watch and invest in.

(3) The quail egg supply chain is gradually improving

With the overall development of the quail egg industry, the follow-up supply chain will tend to be stable, and in terms of the construction of the quail egg supply chain, the companies are currently working closely with upstream suppliers to stabilize procurement prices and establish a more stable and high-quality raw material supply chain. At present, more brands have begun to integrate the management of the whole industry chain, and at the same time to build their own brands, they are also reversing the layout of poultry egg production, extending the industrial chain to the production end, and establishing the original ecological quail breeding production base. The development of quail egg products should seize the dividends of emerging channels, and meet different consumption scenarios by expanding various specifications such as quantitative packaging, small packaging, and mass packaging, so as to obtain a broader growth space.
