India FMCG Market: Growth Factors and Dynamics

Rising urbanization and lifestyle changes

The increasing urbanization and lifestyle changes drives India FMCG market. Supermarkets, hypermarkets and organized retail chains are growing rapidly in urban areas, offering broad range of FMCG products and enhance their shopping experience.

Moreover, the urban population usually prefer ready-to-eat meals such as snacks and packaged food due to time constraints. Demand for processed foods, beverages, and dairy products has surged in urban areas drive the market growth.

Growing population

The growth in the population directly influences the demand for FMCG products such as food & beverages, hygiene products and others. Furthermore, the growing India’s rural population accounted for nearly 65% of the total population are also the major reason for the industry expansion.

High Competition

The increasing competition might be a major hurdle for the industry expansion. Several well-established firms increasingly targeting India because of its growing economy and increasing middle-class population.

Companies such as Unilever, Procter & Gamble, and Nestlé are well-established, yet new entrants are continuously expanding their influence. Foreign brands, particularly in the premium segment compete directly with domestic brands. This will shrink the profit margins, impeding the market growth.
