  • Nearly 46% of the UK’s population consumes breakfast at home.

 

United Kingdom Breakfast Cereal Market Growth

Cereal is the fourth most popular breakfast option in the UK, after eggs, toast, and bacon. With the increasing preference for vegetarian diets, cereals are expected to remain a staple breakfast item across British households over the forecast period. Over 45% of people aged above 55 years in the UK consider breakfast to be an important part of their morning routine, with residents of Norfolk exhibiting the least inclination for skipping breakfast. An average London resident spends 6.5 pounds on consuming breakfast daily.

 

The United Nation’s Food and Agriculture Organisation has recognised 2023 as the International Year of Millets. Millets are rich in dietary fibres and proteins and serve to enhance food security in dry and arid regions. They are rich in iron and possess a low glycaemic index, which makes them suitable for consumption by people with iron deficiency and excessive insulin levels. Millets are relatively more nutritious than refined cereals and play a critical role in enhancing bowel movement and satiation levels. Given Britain’s rising interest in consuming different grains in breakfast cereals, major companies are introducing millet-based breakfast cereals, which is expected to drive the market growth in the forecast period.
