Berries are the best selling supermarket item in Australia
At the Global Food Forum being held in Melbourne, the boss of the supermarket giant explained that as a part of the wellness wave sweeping Australia in particular, there has been a shift in the top three food items being sold.
“The biggest sales category is berries by far, with the group selling 25 percent more in sales than second place. Which is bananas, by the way,” says Banducci. Trailing not far behind bananas in the top three is that breakfast favourite, the avocado.
He believes that the top three consist of fruits because shoppers these days are prioritizing health. “These are all super foods with natural health properties. People right now are wanting to live healthier lives,” he explains.
