Trade industry magazine Checkout, UK, has reported that snacks and bakery products have topped the grocery chart, occupying the top five grocery brands in the UK. Facts provide that the top position is dominated by beverage giant Coca-cola, followed by bakery brand Warburtons, snack-maker Walkers and bakery counterpart Hovis holding the second, third and fourth positions respectively.
Apparently the grocery manufacturers claim that certain product innovations, towards nutrition and flavor in the wholegrain, low-salt and trans-fat free concepts have pushed the brands to top the grocery charts.
Doubtless that Warburtons has expanded its rolling with cranberry wholegrain bread, Hovis with wholegrain white bread and Walkers with its low-fat vegan and celiac crispies, yet the fact that whether or not the consumers are going on high with the nutritious products of the brands, remains dubious.
However, despite numerous health concerns, Coca-cola continues to lure consumers. Moreover the health aisle of grocery store, comprising grains, cereals, fresh vegetables, fruits and herbs, is still lurking behind the grocery shelves to top the grocery charts and for that matter be one among highly consumed food items.
