Indian Wine Industry Forecast to 2012

India has emerged as one of the fastest growing markets for wine on the global map. Despite the country’s vast population of over 1.1 Billion, the consumption of wine remains extremely low. The per capita consumption of wine in the country was estimated at around 9 Milliliters in 2008, indicating huge potential for growth in the coming years.

Various factors such as favorable government policies, increasing disposable income, amplified wine marketing and influence of western culture are helping to drive India’s wine consumption. According to our latest research report, “Indian Wine Industry Forecast to 2012”, wine consumption in India is expected to grow by 25-30% annually between 2009 and 2012.

We have found that various policies by the state level governments are encouraging domestic wine producers to set up their own wineries in the country, giving a boost to the domestic industry. Efforts by the Maharashtra and Karnataka governments remain far-fetched in this regard. However, such measures have raised concerns to WTO which states that India is adopting protectionist policies for its domestic wine industry meanwhile curbing growth of imports.

While local players are including affordable imported wines in their portfolios to attract new consumers, foreign firms are trying hard to expand in the market owing to high rate of tax levied. Our research indicates that the premium wine segment in the country is dominated by imported wines. This is because domestic wines are still unable to demand a high price, largely because of low brand awareness and lack of quality taste. Meanwhile, total consumption is dominated by domestically-produced cheap wine.

“Indian Wine Industry Forecast to 2012” provides extensive research and rational analysis on the wine market in India. Our research gives deep insight into India’s wine consumption in terms of domestically-produced and imported wines, price structure, sales by location, type of wine consumed and a possible regional segmentation.

Brazil Housing Sector Analysis

Brazil has emerged as one of the favorable destinations for the real estate developers to tap unexplored opportunities in housing sector, despite gloomy economic environment. This is largely due to the fact that the country is facing massive housing shortage owing to demand-supply mismatch. With recession hurting the economy, low cost or affordable housing units are fast emerging as the next area of growth in the country’s housing sector.

According to our latest research report “Brazil Housing Sector Analysis”, the housing sector is poised for tremendous growth in the coming few years on the back of growing population, rising income levels and increasing demand for housing units, particularly in the lower and middle income segment. Our research anticipates total housing stocks to increase at a CAGR of around 3% during 2009-2013.

Moreover, the government-owned housing institutions have been offering loans at 12% interest that can be easily paid over 30 years. However, the government hasn't set a deadline for completion and the program will be considered finished only on completion of one million homes.

Anticipating the market potential, Brazil is witnessing massive investments in its housing sector, from both the private and the public sector.

UAE Healthcare Sector Forecast to 2012

The UAE has emerged as one the fastest growing healthcare markets in the Middle East. The country’s healthcare sector has grown at double digit rate to keep pace with incessantly rising demand for quality treatment and diagnostic facilities. Driven by various factors such as rapidly increasing population, rising prevalence of lifestyle diseases, such as obesity, diabetes and hypertension, and the lack of internationally accredited healthcare infrastructure, the country has been witnessing tremendous increase in demand for healthcare services, resulting into increased healthcare spending.

According to our latest research report, “UAE Healthcare Sector Forecast to 2012”, the healthcare spending in the country is forecasted to grow at a CAGR of more than 13% during 2007-2012. This growth will be driven by the favorable regulatory environment, increasing private sector participation and the introduction of compulsory medical insurance schemes together with the expected completion of the Dubai Healthcare City (DHCC) by 2010, which will be the world's first healthcare free-zone.

The government plays a central role in providing healthcare services and accounted for around 70% of the total healthcare spending in 2007. However, with increasing pressure on the public healthcare system, the government is rapidly promoting the involvement of private sector in all areas of medical services ranging from diagnosis to treatment. Under such scenario of outstanding expansion opportunities, we anticipate big investment from the private sector in the forecast period.

The demand for hospitals and hospital beds is anticipated to rise over the next few years since the existing infrastructure is inadequate to deal with rising number of health complications in all sections of the society and every age group people. Besides, the penetration of hospital beds in the UAE is currently low as per the international standards. In general, it is assumed that the developed markets average 4 beds per 1000 population, while in the UAE it is less than 2 beds per 1000 population (in 2007), indicating large room for future growth potential.

“UAE Healthcare Sector Forecast to 2012” provides comprehensive research, objective analysis and information about important issues of the UAE healthcare market. It studies the healthcare industry by segmenting it into hospital services, medical devices and pharmaceuticals. The report contains statistical and analytical information on each of these segments, covering their market size, demand and market segmentation.

Processed Food Market in Vietnam

With increasing urbanization and growing demand for quality food, the food processing industry is growing at rapid pace throughout the world. Vietnam is becoming a hub for food products processing as the industry has been growing at an annual rate of 20-30%. Changing consumption habits are making the processed food a big piece of cake for everyone in the country. Vietnamese now use more processed or preliminarily treated food to make meals, which is seen as a big opportunity for food processors, says a new research report “Processed Food Market in Vietnam”, by RNCOS, a leading market research firm.

We have found that the food processing industry in Vietnam is highly fragmented but it will consolidate, with further opening of the market, and will provide more growth opportunities to foreign companies. The availability of processed and packaged foods will improve as modern food-retailing businesses expand their operations to meet rising demand from more affluent consumers. In order to exploit the opportunities, many processed food producers have already started focusing on making processed food for domestic sales instead of making food for export as previously. Meanwhile, distributors are now racing to conquer the market.

Our findings also reveal that despite the fast growing domestic demand, the processed food industry in the country is still largely export-oriented and primarily dominated by seafood and agriculture food products. Seafood export is mainly dominated by shrimps but overseas demand for Tuna and Tra fish has also soared significantly in recent years. In future, we expect that Tuna and Tra fish together will account for majority of the seafood exports. In the agriculture segment, rice and coffee constitute the majority of exports.

Our report answers all the critical questions such as who are the key players, what are the opportunity area and the barriers before the industry. In addition, the research provides information of the future industry trends on the basis of past market growth, present trends and possible impact of recession on the economy.
