Report Methodology
The information contained in U.S. Food Market Outlook 2024 was developed from a variety of primary and secondary research sources.
Primary research includes interviews with food and beverage market experts and participation in and attendance at food industry events. Primary research also includes the Packaged Facts National Online Consumer survey, a quarterly poll of U.S. adult consumers (age 18+) conducted by Packaged Facts to analyze purchasing patterns and attitudes with regard to food and beverage preferences. Supplementing Packaged Facts' exclusive survey is an extensive analysis of MRI-Simmons' National Consumer Study, which is based on approximately 25,000 adult respondents surveyed annually.
Secondary research entailed gathering data from relevant trade, business, and government sources, as well as company promotional literature and annual reports.
This report contains dozens of numerical tables and charts, as well as numerous product photographs. Our estimates of market size and company performance are based on various sources including reported revenues of product manufacturers and retailers, relevant publications, and other market research sources. The analysis in this report also draws, as a background source, on retail sales tracking data from mass market and specialty channels.
