Confidential and proprietary. 4 HIGHLIGHTS RECOMMENDATIONS Aim to regain lost demographic buyers especially Senior Couples, Small Scale Families, and Bustling Families who have high propensity to consume. Raise the relevance of Cucumbers for healthy snacking, salads, and other fresh applications, especially in Spring/ Summer season. Supermarkets are outperforming Non-supermarkets in value growth. Green Grocers need to adopt winning strategies employed by the majors such as pre-pack, pre-wash, or highlighting the quality of crop. Investigate crop supply or quality in WA and Vic, the only 2 states suffering from reduced Cucumber buyers. Cucumber represents 5.3% of volume and 4.2% of value market share. Its buyer base has increased this year, with a rise in average $ spend on Cucumber compared to last year. Families contribute to 39% of Cucumber volume sales while representing 32% of buyer base. Bustling and Start Up Families witnessed buyer leakage this year. Larger households (3+ members) are the key buyers for Cucumber and account for more than half of its volume sales. Households with up to 4 members have added households to their buyer base this year. All retailers contributed to the value sales growth of Cucumber this year. Aldi’s momentum is strongest while Woolworths, Coles and Non-supermarkets which account for three-fourths of Cucumber volume sales declined. Almost 64% of Woolworths shoppers who buy Cucumber, prefer to purchase it at Woolworths stores, whereas this conversion rate is 62% for Coles. Consumption of Cucumber declined across Australia. VIC and WA lost Cucumber buying households from the buyer base this year.
