Market Dynamics
New Product Launches by F&B Companies
With consumers increasingly seeking convenience, the demand for packaged food and beverage products has grown considerably over the past decade. Rising demand has led food and beverage manufacturers to expand their product lineup of ready-to-eat foods and packaged beverages. To reach more consumers, food and beverage companies are launching different types of packaged foods in various serving sizes and price points.
Another major factor influencing new product launch is expansion of companies to new regions. Food and beverage companies generally create products that are accommodating to local tastes and are based on local cuisines. With new product launches by every major food brand, retail outlets are expanding their retail space dedicated to glass door merchandiser displays.
Advances in Glass Door Merchandiser Technology
Over the past few years, advancements in cooling technologies and the development of new insulation materials have led to more energy-efficient glass door merchandisers. These units consume less electricity while maintaining optimal cooling conditions, resulting in cost savings for retailers and reduced environmental impact.
IoT (Internet of Things) and smart sensors arrays enable glass door merchandisers to regulate temperatures more accurately and efficiently. Modern glass door merchandiser models are being increasingly equipped with digital screens and interactive panels. Retailers can display product information, promotions and branding, enhancing customer engagement to influence purchasing decisions. With new technological advancements leading to lower operating costs, the adoption of glass door merchandisers is likely to increase over the coming years.
High Operational Costs
Glass door merchandisers extensively use electricity to power their cooling and lighting systems. With volatile energy prices, especially in developed regions such as Europe, retailers and other end-users are becoming increasingly hesitant to invest in merchandisers due to concerns about increased operating expenses, which can erode their profit margins.
While glass door merchandisers are generally more energy-efficient than open display units, the cost savings from reduced energy consumption require significant time to offset the initial investment. Many retailers perceive the long-term operational expenses for glass door merchandisers as a drawback, since various other factors can impact energy savings in the long term.
COVID-19 Impact Analysis
The COVID-19 pandemic created serious challenges for the global market due to supply chains disruptions on account of lockdowns, travel restrictions and factory closures. It resulted in delays in the production and delivery of glass door merchandisers, leading to shortages and increased lead times for retailers and businesses. The shortage of new glass door merchandisers led to increased prices in the second-hand market.
Many retail outlets, such as supermarkets, convenience stores and restaurants, experienced a drastic decline in footfall due to restricted operations caused by the implementation of social distancing measures. With fewer customers, there was a reduced demand for glass door merchandisers from major end-users for a major duration of the pandemic.
AI Impact Analysis
An array of AI-powered sensors and algorithms can be utilized in modern glass door merchandisers to maintain optimal temperature levels inside glass door merchandisers based on the specific requirements of the displayed products. It will ensures energy-efficient cooling and maintain product freshness and quality.
AI-enabled glass door merchandisers can be equipped with cameras and machine vision technology to analyze customer demographics and behavior trends. Retailers can leverage the information to display targeted advertisements and promotions based on individual preferences, thus increasing sales opportunities.
Russia-Ukraine War Impact Analysis
The war between Russia and Ukraine has not majorly affected the global market at large, but demand for glass door merchandisers has fallen in both countries. Due to large-scale destruction of infrastructure and refugee exodus, the demand for glass door merchandisers from Ukraine will be significantly depressed over the short and medium term.
The demand for glass door merchandisers in Russia has also decreased significantly on account of stringent western sanctions on Russian businesses. Many multinational retail companies in Russia have exited the market due to the sanctions. Russian businesses have since relied upon the international grey market to fulfill demand for glass door merchandisers.
