19. Opportunities will be outside of Europe
• 25% of Indian population with the highest IQ
• Higher than the total population of US
• China is now the largest English speaking country in the
world
20. Population growth & economic growth
to drive demand
• 25-30% demand growth from increased population
• 70-75% driven by economic growth
• 40% of the worlds population living in countries that are
recoding economic growth of 8% per annum.
• The number of middle class in China and India forecast to
increase by 1.2 billion over next 20 years
21. Economic growth effects
Income level per
capita
Effect of economic growth on food consumption
<$2 per day
Eat more (increase calorie intake)
$2-$10 per day
Switch from grains to meat and dairy
>$10 per day
Increase spending on services/quality (convenience, brands,
fresh/cooled)
22. Economic growth effects
• Increase demand for dairy products will require a
New Zealand every 10 years
• 10% increase in income equates to a 5% increase in
beef consumption
