We at SIVO, Inc. like to see our friends at Whole Foods Market leaning into consumer-driven insights and trends! They have identified and are acting on a consumer insight around their shoppers wanting to indulge but not overindulge so they are purchasing “little luxuries” or indulgent foods packaged in smaller treat-size portions, such as a decadent pudding cups. The trend, cited by Whole Foods Chief Executive Jason Buechel, is also about letting consumers indulge without having to break the bank. So “little luxury” items can also include small portions of typically pricey fare, such as, caviar. The "Little Luxuries" insight can be apart of a broader snacking demand space map that marketing and R&D teams can use to inspire innovation ideas in the snacking category.
