INTRODUCTION With rising incomes and increasing consumer demand across Asia presenting export opportunities for Australian based food and beverage manufacturers, the Australian Food and Grocery Council (AFGC) commissioned a series of reports to deepen Australian industry understanding of particular markets.

While Australian and international research has focussed on export opportunities for products such as dairy, meat and wine across Asian markets, there has been little focus on the opportunities for manufactured food products such as snacks, non-alcoholic beverages, and confectionary.

The aim of this project is to provide insights into some of the opportunities that exist for specific manufactured food products in particular markets as a means of contributing to, and supporting the development of, better knowledge of export opportunities of manufactured food into Asia.

PRODUCT AND GEOGRAPHIC COVERAGEWhile there are export opportunities across Asia, the AFGC Market Insights focus on three key makets: Thailand and Malaysia because of improved access under the respective trade agreeemnts; and China due to the long term food consumption forecasts.

This Market Insights series of reports focus on the premium retail and Hotels/Restaurants/Cafes (HoReCa) sector, for the following specific products:

� Snackfoods

– Chocolate

– Sugar Confectionery

– Cereal-based Bars

� Beverages

– Fruit Juice

– Tea

– Premium Cold Beverages

� Baked Goods

– Biscuits

– Baking Mixes

� Condiments

– Premium Table Sauces

– Jams

By concentrating on specific products, the Market Insights report is able to bring deeper insights into the key considerations for Australian food & beverage manufacturers. These products have been selected for initial focus for two reasons: (i) each has witnessed significant import growth (between $6m–$219m from 2010–2012 1) into the target markets , and (ii) they are export items supported by capabilities of the Australian food & beverage sector. Together, these products represent opportunities for food & beverage exports from Australia into Thailand.

The Market Insights report offers detailed practical insights into specific product categories, far beyond information which is in the public domain. Manufacturers in the product categories covered (snacks, beverages, baked goods, condiments) — or those with capability to extend into these categories — should find the detailed insights both practical and compelling.

STRUCTURE OF THE REPORT We recommend that you find your own path through this Market Insights report, which may not necessarily be from cover to cover.

Part I of this report contains important information about market size and growth, food & beverage trends, key trade shows and routes to market, as well as regulatory and trading considerations such as labelling standards. This information will be useful to new exporters and for established exporters looking to revisit the underlying market dynamics.

Those with some background and experience in Thailand may wish to skip directly to the content relevant to their specific product lines, which falls in Part II of this Guide. There you will find details — for each covered product category — such as ‘share of shelf’ for key brands, packaging size, price points, tastes and promotional trends, any trade barrier details – and contacts for key retailers and distributors in the market. For those seeking even more detail, the report contains the detailed results of premium retail store surveys across Thailand.

EXECUTIVE SUMMARYWith rising incomes and increasing consumer demand across Asia presenting export opportunities for Australian based food and beverage manufacturers, the Australian Food and Grocery Council (AFGC) with funding assistance from Austrade, commissioned a series of reports to deepen Australian industry understanding of the opportunities that exist. These reports examine opportunities for specific manufactured food products – snacks, beverages, baked goods and condiments – in Malaysia, Thailand and China.

This report focusses on Thailand – a market that Australia has privileged access to through the Thailand-Australia Free Trade Agreement and where it is relatively easy to do business compared to other Asian markets.

Thai consumers are spending 7 per cent more on food every year, are increasingly purchasing food through retail and hotel, restaurant and café (HoReCa) channels, have great confidence in imported product and are exceptionally open to innovations in taste and packaging.

This report shows that opportunities for Australian suppliers are clearly defined and growing. The most important trends identified in this report include:

� The growth in imports is fastest at the premium end of the market. The two distribution channels likely to offer opportunities for Australian premium product are premium outlets (high end supermarket formats) and convenience stories, where fierce competition is driving interest in new and differentiated products.

� Organic, healthy and functional foods are growing fast in Thailand — with labelling and health claim regulations far less onerous than those for entry into the Chinese market.

� Across product categories covered in this report, younger Thai consumers are driving demand for innovation in flavours and packaging. While this means Thai distributors and retailers are always open to new ideas, Australian suppliers must be aware that local Thai manufacturers, famously adaptive to emerging trends, will soon be chasing your market niche.

The opportunity for Australian suppliers will not emerge from analysing the broad trends among Thai consumers. Rather, suppliers should test their product, pricing, packaging and other detailed factors against what this report highlights for each of the products covered. The report highlights a number of opportunities for each category including:

� Chocolates: Premium retailers are seeking handcrafted boutique products that can be short and/or limited production runs. This creates opportunities for Australian producers to trial products.

� Confectionery: Thai consumers often prefer sweet candy and there is a growing preference for ‘additive free’ confectionery.

� Cereal Bars: The market for cereal bars is expected to grow rapidly in the current market development phase. Cereal bars are increasingly seen by young and wealthy Thais as a healthy option for breakfast or a snack ‘on the go’.

� Fruit Juice: The fruit juice market is expected to grow rapidly in the short term as Thais consume juice as a healthy alternative to other beverages. Growth is expected in both single serve (e.g. 200 ml) and large 1 - 1.25 litre containers.

� Tea: The largest market for hot tea in Thailand is expatriates and tourists. Most Western style hot tea is imported. Opportunity exists for a wide range of traditional and flavoured tea products.

� Premium Cold Beverages: Given the tropical climate and large numbers of tourists, there is a wide range of premium cold beverages available in Thailand. The large value of the market (AUD 1.26 billion) and significant growth (above 15 per cent CAGR to 2017) presents significant opportunity.

� Biscuits: Strong growth is expected in the biscuits category over the short term. Chocolate, strawberry and butter flavours are popular for sweet biscuits. For savoury biscuits, new and innovative flavours are increasingly popular.

� Baking mixes: The market for cake mixes is in the early stages of development with chocolate, vanilla and butter being popular flavours.

� Premium Table Sauces: Traditional Thai sauces (fish, ginger, and chilli) currently dominate the market however Western style sauces (including Worcestershire, mayonnaise and mustard) are enjoying strong growth.

� Jams: A growing trend is jam on toast for breakfast, with popular flavours being orange, strawberry and mixed fruits.

The AFGC hopes this Market Insights report assists Australian suppliers to understand the characteristics and export opportunities of the Thai market and to assess whether their products suit the needs of Thai consumers or require modification for this market.

THE BIG PICTURE

1.1 DEMOGRAPHICSThe Thai population is currently 66.8 million with more than 7 million people estimated to live in Bangkok. Most of the Thai population is ethnic Thai (75 per cent) or Thai Chinese (15 per cent), though the number of migrants from Cambodia, Laos, Myanmar and Nepal is increasing. One-third of the population is aged between 15 and 35, with substantially greater openness to new and innovative products and technologies. Thailand also receives more than 20 million tourists a year which is an important market for Australian food and beverage products.

1.2 ECONOMIC OVERVIEWThailand is the second largest economy in Southeast Asia after Indonesia, with a GDP of AUD 375.4 billion and GDP per capita of AUD 5,768 in 2012. Its economic growth is experiencing a slump at present — from 6.5 per cent in 2012 down to 3.2 per cent in 2013 – largely due to political turbulence. More positively, in 2011, the World Bank upgraded Thailand’s income categorisation from lower-middle income to upper-middle income, reflecting the increase in purchasing power across both urban and rural households. The World Bank now forecasts an upswing in GDP growth back to near 5 per cent in 2014, though growth will be affected by political turbulence.

Thailand is an economy built on a strong product and service export base. Exports account for 75 per cent of Thailand’s GDP, with natural resources, agricultural produce and electronics as major export goods. Despite political troubles, tourism has surprisingly expanded by 20 per cent in 2013, even though protests had a major effect on the number of incoming tourists towards the end of the year. Tourism employment is one of the many reasons that Thailand has one of the lowest unemployment rates worldwide, currently at 0.7 per cent.

1.3 FOOD TRADE WITH AUSTRALIA In Thailand the ratio of imported food to domestically produced food currently stands at 30:70. Thailand imports AUD 12.5 billion of food and beverage products every year. This amounts to 5 per cent of total Thai goods imports. Thailand is Australia’s 6th largest export market for food and the 10th largest export market for fresh produce. Australia’s market share of Thailand’s total food imports has been decreasing since the late 90’s, while market shares of other ASEAN member countries such as Malaysia and BRIC countries such as Brazil have been increasing continuously (Figure 1 below). Australia’s major food and beverage exports into Thailand are cereals, flours, dairy and baked goods. Major growth categories are meat and seafood preparations, cereals, coffee and tea, fruit and vegetable juices, and fats and oils3.

FOOD AND BEVERAGE TRENDS4

Thai consumer spending on food is growing at a staggering 7 per cent year on year. A typical Thai family now spends about 35 per cent of their total income on food and beverage. Higher average incomes are responsible for this growth — Thailand has 30 million middle to upper-income customers that are increasingly eager to purchase processed and packaged foods, try out new flavours and dine out more frequently.

2.1 BROAD TRENDS IN FOOD AND BEVERAGE CONSUMPTION

In Thailand, the total Premium Retail Market for the Selected Product Categories constitutes a considerable market with growth in the range of 4 per cent to 18 per cent expected each year over the next three years, as set out in Table 2 below.

Changes in distribution channels and origin

� The majority of Thais still prefer fresh food markets, but many consumers now shop at supermarkets and ready-to-eat food items are challenging traditional wet market shopping and home cooking.

� The retail market accounts for 70 per cent of total food spending, although the popularity of eating out is growing among younger Thais and working professionals.

� Thailand is growing its proportion of local to imported product, as well as its import of ingredients to fuel this market growth.

Changing Consumer Tastes

� Urban Thais continue to move away from a traditional diet of rice, vegetables, meat and seafood. This has brought about the surge of growth in packaged and processed foods and beverages — for example, Thailand is now the largest market for instant coffee in the world.

� The retail value of organic food has increased by 10.5 per cent each year on average between 2008 and 2012, driven predominantly by younger Thais with larger disposable income than previous generations. Organic sections in Thai high-end supermarkets are now well stocked with an extensive range of products.

� Healthy and functional foods have witnessed tremendous growth over the last 5 years in Thailand. Vitamins and dietary supplements have grown between 12 per cent – 15 per cent year on year, while ‘naturally healthy foods’ are growing at between 7 per cent – 15 per cent year on year

PICTURE 1: ORGANIC LABELS THAILAND

Eating out “fashionable and trendy”

� There has been an increase in the popularity of ‘fashionable’ modern-styled eating venues and fusion cuisine restaurants, milk cafés, coffee shops, bakery houses and ice cream parlours. This is expected to directly affect volume sales of packaged food via the foodservice channel.5

Italian Food

� Italian food has witnessed an explosion of popularity in recent years in Thailand, with now more than 400 Italian restaurants in Bangkok. Australian company San Remo is selling effectively into this industry and increasing its presence on retail shelves.

Ingredients needed

� A strong growth in ingredient importation (mostly for processed foods) suggests increasing demand in both functional ingredients (minerals, vitamins, probiotics, and herbs) and operative ingredients such as preservative free agents which extend shelf life (additives, flavourings, baking ingredients).

2.2 ATTITUDE TO IMPORTED FOOD AND BEVERAGEThailand’s demand for premium imported food and beverage is growing in line with the growth in the tourism industry (See Table 3 below) and the growth of upper-middle income earners. Imported food and beverage typically sells very well in Bangkok and tourist precincts such as Phuket, Hua Hin, Krabi, Samui and Chiang Mai.

TABLE 3: TOURIST ARRIVALS TO THAILAND6

2009 2010 2011 2012

Tourist arrivals 14,150,000 15,936,000 19,230,000 22,354,000

Growth 13% 13% 21% 16%

Imports of fresh produce in Thailand have increased significantly, particularly in the retail and food service sectors. There is growing interest in imported produce such as citrus, apples, cherries and berries for use in Thailand’s food manufacturing sector. Australia is perceived as a reliable and reputable source of clean, hygienic, superior quality products – though not significantly more so than other foreign suppliers. In fact, Thai retailers assert that consumers do not have strong perceptions of differentiation between products from different countries.

Australian products are perceived as competing with larger, traditional food supplier countries such as US, Japan, the EU and Korea. Overall, this is a challenge to the presumed uniqueness of Australia’s ‘clean and green’ food and grocery offering.

Australian products need to have a unique proposition that distinguishes them from local and imported products in Thailand.

2.3 OUTLINE OF THE FOOD AND BEVERAGE SUPPLY CHAIN

2.3.1 Retail store formats

Driven by hypermarkets and convenience stores, Thailand is the second most dynamic retail market in Asia after China, due to a high level of foreign and domestic investment in the retail industry. 70 per cent of all spending on food and beverage occurs at some form of retail food outlet, with most modern stores located in densely populated and the more affluent areas. There has been a proliferation in Thailand’s retail industry by leading international retail chains — including UK-based Tesco, Casino Guichard-Perrachon SA of France, and the Netherlands-based Makro. This expansion has led to greater availability of newly introduced products throughout Thailand.

Premium retail stores

Major store brands in Thailand’s premium retail sector include Villa Market, Tesco Lotus, Tops, The Mall Gourmet Market and Foodland. These premium supermarkets in Thailand offer gourmet foods and have large quantities of imported items on their shelves, targeting high-income Thais and expatriates. This is a recommended sector for Australian processed food exporters looking to enter the market.

Supermarkets

Thailand’s major supermarket chains such as AEON, Home Fresh Mart, and Foodland Supermarket target the medium to high income customers and are concentrated in Bangkok. The Thai supermarket segment typically offers premium products including domestically produced goods as well as imported items.

Hypermarkets

Hypermarkets are currently the best performing retail store format, with 90 per cent of urban Thais shopping at least once a week at one of the two major hypermarket chains, Big C (Carrefour Group) and Tesco Lotus. Big C and Tesco Lotus have an “Extra” store format for exclusive products, with more imported products than their other stores, while Makro (acquired by CP All in 2013) operates cash & carry stores of different formats.

Convenience stores

The most dramatic growth in the Thai retail food sector has been in convenience stores, which are visited 13 times a month on average by the urban shopper. 7-Eleven is still the dominant player, though the large hypermarket brands are rapidly rolling out ‘premium’ convenience store formats, selling higher quality packaged foods and groceries targeted at wealthier inner-urban consumers.

There are now more than 12,000 convenience stores nationwide, with 15 per cent of all packaged FMCG (fast moving consumer goods) sales going through this channel. CPALL Public Company (CPALL), the owner of the 7-Eleven network in Thailand which now numbers 7,000 stores, is the world’s third largest 7-Eleven network after Japan and the U.S.

Thai convenience retailing is the new battleground in the retail sector: CPALL’s 7-Eleven chain leads in overall size, followed by Tesco Lotus Express, CP Freshmart and FamilyMart (which is now owned by the Central Retail Group). Lawson’s, the 2nd biggest Japanese convenience operator, has just entered into a joint venture with Thailand’s largest consumer product group (Sahapat) to launch their Thai operations.

These convenience stores are now promoting themselves as dedicated “Food Convenience” stores and are a space worthy of exporter’s attention. This fierce competition has sparked increased interest in innovative, differentiated products which creates opportunity for Australian suppliers.

2.3.2 Premium HoReCa Market

Thailand’s large Premium Hotel Restaurant Café (HoReCa) food service sector comprises approximately 150,000 outlets, including 100,000 restaurants and more than 5,000 hotels and resorts. Hotels, resorts, tourist restaurants and corporate food service rely heavily on imported food. The Thai HoReCa sector, on average, imports 30 per cent of food sold locally. Growth in the tourism industry has resulted in a growing demand for beef, cheese, seafood, wine and seasonings which are used in western-style, Japanese and other international restaurants.

Major premium supermarket operators

Tesco Lotus

Tesco is the largest food retailer in Thailand and operates under the management of Ekchai Distribution System. In addition to high-end supermarkets, they operate hypermarkets, compact hypermarkets and convenience stores under the Tesco brand.

2.3.3 Distribution channels

Exporting to Thailand is relatively uncomplicated compared to complex processes in other Asian markets such as China. Australian suppliers wanting to access the Thai consumer would typically either work directly through the large retailers in either the supermarket or convenience store format, or with importers and distributors as per the diagram below. Direct contact with retailers is usually often the best strategy in Thailand to establish a relationship.

FIGURE 2: ROUTES TO THE MARKET — RETAILERS

In the HoReCa industry, exporters are typically required to work with food distributors in the premium food segment that take over the import process for them. Through their dealers, they market the products to the individual HoReCa branches.

› Check out Annex IV for information on Premium HoReCa players and their contact details.

FIGURE 3: ROUTES TO THE MARKET — HORECA

Accessing Thai supermarkets and hypermarkets

Supermarket, hypermarkets and cash & carry store formats often work with importers and distributors and operate their own central warehouses. Some chains also import directly and have goods transported to their distribution centres. Whereas supermarkets might consider smaller product amounts and would be more likely to look into new product categories, hypermarkets and cash & carry are usually interested in large product amounts and products that have been well established in the Thai market. Australian suppliers should be aware that multinational retailers typically charge listing fees for new products, based on number of retail outlets and stockkeeping units.

Accessing Thai convenience stores

Going direct to the group head office — particularly by visiting in person — is the most effective path to accessing Thai convenience stores. However, Thai language skills are essential to accurately convey important product qualities and commercial opportunities. For this reason, preparing local translation and support is critical. Following initial discussions, using a Thai distributor to fast-track import and sales activities will be a significant advantage. As in the other retail segments, listing fees for new products are common in the convenience sector as well.

Supply through Distributors

There are plenty of Thai distributors focussing on different product categories in the food and beverage sector. They typically combine import and distribution activities and support exporters with regulatory issues. The typical Thai distributor would require an exporter to fill in an application form and provide product information and samples to supply their products. Communicating with distributors is typically very easy and many speak English fluently.

REGULATORY AND TRADING ENVIRONMENTS

3.1 TRADE POLICY POSITION AND APPROACH TO TRADE AGREEMENTSThailand’s economy is fairly open with a focus on international trade, particularly with ASEAN partners and other Asian countries.

Australia and Thailand signed a free trade agreement (known as TAFTA) in 2005, which has reduced or eliminated tariffs on most products imported from Australia. The reduction in tariff barriers for Australian products was further entrenched in the regional ASEAN-Australia-New Zealand FTA, effective in 2010, to which Thailand is a signatory. Thailand has also negotiated bilateral FTAs with India, Japan, New Zealand and Peru. Through the ASEAN membership, Thailand also has FTAs with China and Korea (see Table 4). The implementation of the ASEAN Economic Community (AEC) in 2015 is likely to increase trade between ASEAN member countries.

3.2 TARIFF AND NON-TARIFF BARRIERS

3.2.1 Tariff Barriers

The Thailand-Australia Free Trade Agreement (TAFTA) has had a significant impact on Australia-Thai trade. Since 1 January 2010, most food and beverage products imported from Australia had zero import tariffs compared to 10–20 per cent tariffs for countries with no FTA with Thailand. Any remaining tariffs, with the exception of dairy commodity products, will be eliminated by 2020. Tariffs in Thailand are generally calculated based on the cost, insurance and freight (CIF) value, plus 7 per cent Value Added Tax (VAT).

Tariff rate quotas

Under TAFTA, Thailand has tariff rate quotas in place for products such as dairy, coffee, tea, corn and sugar that are expanded yearly until most of them will be eliminated by 2020 (except dairy). “In quota” tariff rates are at low levels (e.g. 8 per cent for corn and 12 per cent for coffee in 2014) and “out of quota” tariff rates are 10 per cent below the rate that Thailand offers to non-FTA partner countries.

Australian suppliers should be aware that some beverages including tea and beverages with added dairy may fall under the definition of “agricultural sensitive products” – and may have a tariff rate quota applied. Details on products covered in this report are included in the specific product categories.

3.2.2 Non-Tariff Barriers

Processed and packaged foods generally have low levels of non-trade barriers (NTB) and enter Thailand quite easily. Most NTBs are imposed on unprocessed or semi-processed agricultural produce and commodities.

Subsidies

� Price support programs to bolster the domestic rice industry have resulted in substantial government owned stocks of rice (estimated at 15 million metric tons). A major concern for exporters is that these might be released on global markets, depressing prices to below the cost of acquisition. There are no known current price support programs on processed food and grocery.

Customs Barriers

� There are examples of problems with customs valuation for food products entering Thailand. Close consultation with Thai partners is likely to minimise any problems.

� It is important to thoroughly review and check documentation for export to Thailand to minimise issues at the Thai Border.

PRACTICAL TIP — Make sure your Thai customer knows that you can reduce their landed cost through Free Trade Agreements.

3.3 Overview of food regulation and import standards

The Thai Food Act B.E.2522 from 1979 is the key legislation that governs Thai food safety standards and regulations. Control of the importation, marketing, distribution and sales in the processed food industry is shared between a number of Thai government bodies including the Food and Drug Administration (FDA), the Ministry of Finance’s Customs Department, the Ministry of Agriculture and Cooperatives and the Ministry of Commerce.

When it comes to standards, quality and hygiene are the major focus areas in the processed food sector. Many international firms have established a presence in Thailand supplying services related to food safety and hygiene issues.

The following food safety standards are required when exporting food items to Thailand:

� Good Manufacturing Practice — a general standard

� Hazard Analysis at Critical Control Points (HACCP) — an internationally accredited standard

� Food products must be approved and registered with the Thai FDA prior to importation

Registration with the Thai Food and Drug Administration

Exporters are required to register their products with the Thai FDA to gain market access. The Thai FDA only recognises documents issued by a government organisation, or a commercial organisation that is certified by the International Accreditation Forum (IAF). In Australia, the only organisation certified by the IAF is the Joint Accreditation System of Australia and New Zealand (JAS-ANZ). JAS-ANZ accredits commercial organisations (certifying bodies) to issue product certificates.

When seeking registration with the FDA, suppliers must provide:

� Two samples of each product

� Details of the exact composition by percentage of each ingredient

� A production flowchart

� Six labels

As per the Thai Food Act, food is divided into the following four categories, with different documentation requirements to register with the FDA:7

7 USDA, Food and Agricultural Import Regulations and Standards – Narrative (2014)

› For a link to the JAS-ANZ database of certified bodies, refer to Annex VII.

› Links to relevant application forms can be found in Annex VII.

Any health claims need to be proven at time of FDA approval. Health and other claims such as ‘GMO free’, ‘low fat’, are often required to be ‘stickered over’. Some Australian product is present on retail shelves with four blank stickers covering Recommended Daily Intake (RDI) percentages, and ‘health claims’ such as low fat. Additional information on labelling can be found on the Austrade website (Export Markets — Thailand).

3.3.2 Certificate of origin

Australian suppliers require a certificate of origin that can be obtained through the Australian Chamber of Commerce and Industry (ACCI) or the Australian Industry Group (AIG).

SUMMARY

When considering expansion into Asia, the Thai consumer should be firmly in the mind of Australian food and beverage manufacturers. The Thai consumer is spending 7 per cent more on food every year, has great confidence in imported product, and is exceptionally open to innovation in taste and packaging. Critically, the Thai consumer is more accessible through retail and HoReCa channels than ever before.

Since 2005, Australia has had privileged access into the Thai market through the far-reaching Thailand-Australia Free Trade Agreement. The fact that Australia’s share of total food imports into Thailand has been decreasing since the 1990s is a trend we need to reverse.

This report shows that opportunities for Australian suppliers are clearly defined and growing. The most important trends identified in this report include:

� the growth in imports is fastest at the premium end of the market8. The two distribution channels likely to offer opportunities for Australian premium product are premium outlets (high end supermarket formats) and convenience stories, where fierce competition is driving interest in new and differentiated products.

� Organic, healthy and functional foods are growing fast in Thailand — with labelling and health claim regulations far less onerous than those for entry into the Chinese market.

� Across product categories covered in this report, younger Thai consumers are driving demand for innovation in flavours and packaging. While this means Thai distributors and retailers are always open to new ideas, Australian suppliers must be aware that local Thai manufacturers, famously adaptive to emerging trends, will soon be chasing your market niche.

The opportunity for Australian suppliers will not emerge from analysing the broad trends among Thai consumers. Rather, suppliers should test their product, pricing, packaging and other detailed factors against what this report highlights for each of the products covered.

The Thai market is uniquely open to new ideas in food and grocery. This makes direct approaches to retailers, distributors, franchises and other HoReCa groups (many of which are identified in this report) well suited for market entry into Thailand.
