Abstract

The German meat market is facing considerable changes. Along with the boom of case-ready and discount stores, butchers and smaller retailers loose market shares, and private labels become widely accepted. The consumers' preferences are often neglected by these trends. This contribution discusses the German case-ready trend on the basis of an extensive literature review and a consumer survey. A target group of high-income consumers with high preference for meat counters is identified. Consumers who currently buy case-ready meat are acting rather due to price advantages than for reasons of technical advantages such as longer storage life. International examples show that in such a situation it is up to the retailers, if meat counters can survive. Der deutsche Fleischmarkt befindet sich in einer Umbruchphase. Mit dem Siegeszug von SB und Discountware verlieren Fleischerfachgeschäfte und kleinere Handelsgeschäfte an Relevanz, Handelsmarken setzen sich durch. Weitgehend unbeachtet bleiben dabei die tatsächlichen Verbraucherpräferenzen. Dieser Beitrag diskutiert den SB-Trend im deutschen Fleischmarkt auf Basis einer umfangreichen Literaturanalyse und einer Verbraucherbefragung. Es wird eine einkommensstarke Zielgruppe mit beträchtlicher Präferenz für hochwertige Thekenware identifiziert. Verbraucher, die derzeit SB-Fleisch kaufen, tun dies weniger aufgrund der produktionstechnischen Vorteile (z. B. längere Haltbarkeit), als aufgrund von Preisvorteilen. Internationale Beispiele zeigen, dass es in einer solchen Situation vom Anbieter-Verhalten abhängt, ob Bedienungsware langfristig Marktanteile verteidigen kann.
